Sort the beads

Sort the beads: explore colours, shapes, sequences and patterns through play. Eight double-sided task cards show templates to copy by threading or stacking. On the black-and-white cards, children choose the colours themselves, making their first creative decisions.

How Children Play with Them

Your child picks up the first card, studies the order: red, blue, round, square. They thread the beads in sequence on the cord and compare. With black-and-white cards, they create their own colour combinations. Pattern recognition builds through repetition, focus grows from the joy of success. Soon they’ll be designing their own templates for others to try.
