String the Bead
Part of the Educo 0–3 Grow & Develop Range, String the Bead is a hands-on activity that helps young children develop precision, control, and coordination in their hand movements. As children carefully thread each bead, they strengthen fine motor skills while building focus and patience.
The beads are designed to increase in difficulty, providing a progressive challenge that supports growth and confidence. Along the way, children are also introduced to colours and shapes, reinforcing early visual and cognitive development. A beautifully simple yet effective learning tool, String the Bead combines play with purposeful skill development, supporting children’s growth step by step. Wooden tray measures 20 x 20 x 6.5cm. Suitable for ages 18-22months.
