These thick, solid-colored beads in a variety shapes promote color and shape recognition, and can be used to help teach sequencing, patterning, sorting, counting, and more. The alphabet beads teach letter recognition and beginning spelling skills. Beading activities improve concentration and promote problem solving and creative expression, too!
