. but I quickly realized that the little beads were quite tiny and would be difficult for children of that age.

I originally bought this for first graders to make as a project but I quickly realized the small beads are quite small and would be difficult for children to make do ages, and they would often drop them on the floor, so I decided to just make them at home with my son. There are 30 pieces on the pack. I have a few broken star shaped beads but they gave a lot of extra beads to make up for the broken ones so I still have enough good ones to make 30 pieces. The only thing I didn't like was that the brushes were not pre-cut, so you need to measure and cut them all. The packaging says you need glue and tools to cut and bend the tube brushes, but I don't have those tools and I ended up using regular cutting scissors and manually bending the tube brushes with no problems. Glue is not strictly necessary, but will make the beads more durable over time.

Pros
  • Not suitable for children under the age of three
Cons
  • There are new competitors
