Color Splash!® Fuse Bead Bucket, Assorted Colors, 26,000+ Beads

I had craft activities for my daughter's 6th birthday, including Fuse Beads. By the end of the night and into wee hours of the morning children and adults both were making their own designs. It was great to see children using their imagination to make very creative designs. Along with the enjoyment that the adults got out of it too.

Fuse beads are classic, all time favorites. They get kids engaged and focused on creating something. The patterns help everyone become an artist, even those with less experience. I also love this product because it one of the few crafts that gets boys attention equally as the girls. Camp Arroyo loves this product!

The fuse beads are always a hit with kids of all ages, including staff. It is amazing how creative the kids get when you just give them the opportunity to imagine. The only negative is that the beads are so small when the fall onto the floor it is hard to see them when cleaning up.

As a kid I loved these beads! Now working with other kids, they love being able to make their own design or 3d fuse bead sculpture! My suggestion if anyone is buying fuse beads Stock UP because I only bring out fuse beads two days out of five and my 26,000 amount is shrinking really fast!

I own a nanny agency and we had to work at a corporate event keeping over 100 children from ages 4yrs- tweens entertained for 3 days. This was the best and most popular activity of the event. Kept the children focused and entertained for a good three hours. Is also great for helping younger children develop age appropriate motor skills.

Our preschool had a sand table that year after year would get bugs in it. This year we decided to try something different. We wanted to use some type of material that could easily be cleaned but would work for the activity station. Students can scoop, bury toys, measure, etc in the bins of beads. If beads fall on the floor, they are collected, washed, and returned to the station. It has worked great and the kids love all the bright colored beads.

This product makes for many different craft activities. It helps individuals express their creativity in numerous ways. Whether it's making a refrigerator magnet or a key chain. Adult supervision is needed when young people use this product, but I guarantee you the adult will enjoy the activities just as much!!!!!!

There are no patterns sheet to help kids, which should come with it. And it would be cool to get some shape templates with the bucket. Then this bucket would be totally perfect. Other than no patterns sheet and no shape templates, the beads are same size and good to use, which make it better to iron. It's still good to use.

Reports are coming in from the teachers that the beads do not fit the pegboard and they are cut wrong and are different sizes. These beads are in a clear bucket with blue handle and lid and made in China. Please bring back the beads you use to sell.

I run a children's arts and crafts program at a resort. We have been using S&S to purchase our fuse beads for years. Unfortunately, it appears that the size of the beads has changed slightly, making them them larger. This makes it so you can't fit beads onto every peg of the shape you're making. It's very frustrating for our students. Please double check your bead sizes S &S!!
