Beaded necklace

One of my first crafts with my son, besides crayons and water paints, was this beaded necklace. He was 2 and a half at the time, and he loved it! It can also be educational. You can teach colors and counting while making it, and it also is wonderful for their hand and eye coordination.

We used:
-plastic beads
-leather craft rope

You can also use:
-string, yarn, ribbon, or an old shoe string!
-instead of beads try elbow pasta or cereal (cheerios or fruit loops) however it obviously won't last as long
