"You're Special" Valentine's Bracelets |
Surprise your Valentine with a pretty handmade bracelet to show your love
Ages:
3 and up
Supplies:
• Beads of various colours and shapes. (Kids can pick beads by colour or theme for an added personal touch)
• String or yarn
Directions:
1. Lay out an assortment of beads in various colours and shapes.
2. Cut a piece of string or yarn (that will fit nicely on your wrist) and tie a knot at one end.
3. Choose beads to create your bracelet. (Tip: Make the bracelet in the recipient’s favourite colours or use alphabet beads to spell out their name.)
4. After stringing the bracelet, tie a knot at the other end of the string. Be sure to leave enough string at each end to tie around the wrist.
Tips
• Younger children may find it easier to use thick pieces of yarn and pasta shells, instead of beads and string.
