I found this bucket of beads at the op-shop a few weeks ago. I was going to save them until Mister E gets a bit older because I thought it would be too difficult to master threading the beads onto a string. He saw them this morning and was desperate to play, so we had a go. I was really surprised at how well he managed to thread the beads, he got such a thrill with each one and was very impressed with the necklace he made.

Been painting too I see! This reminds me, I should pull out our (also op-shopped) beads for my youngest – poor thing, I forget so many things of the things I did with his older sister in the chaos of two kids — lucky for him she challenges him in oh-so-may ways I just couldn’t.
