I'm a mom who loved the pony beads of the 90's as a small human and the fact that chunky beaded bracelets are back is great. Until the flashbacks of pudgy fisted childlike me tying a knot in a string to just watch my beads consistely fall off slaps me back to reality a bit too quickly. I first found these in a craft store kit for my little one and and once I realized how revolutionary these were for little Hands making their own bracelets I had to find out where to get more. They're sylturdy yet stretchy and easy as can be to put on and off and on and off and on again and off again my toddlers head all day with no risk of snapping. When initially crafting the design of the string is wider at one end not allowing for pony beads to easily slip off and causing mass chaos because "all my beads just fell of the sting that kept me busy for 45 minutes". Those days are left in the past-where they belong. Love these for allowing my little one to be creative without risking her own sanity at the beads that never stay. Quality product, even at its price.

The best jewelry essential!
These silicone strings are a perfect addition to the bead box of 4 to 7 year olds. They are easy to open and close with no help from adults. They are the right size for little wrists and necks and even fit parents and grandparents. Our 2 granddaughters love using them and were very excited to see there were also bracelet cords. Only one suggestion, make sure the holes in your beads fit over the thin end of the cord. The letter beads come in varied size holes and the smaller holes were a real struggle to add on. The bigger size holes were quite easy to string. Word to the wise...get a lot of them.

Great product
Second time purchasing these, we LOVE them! They do fit pony beads with the wider opening as opposed to smaller glass beads. But my kids love using these as opposed to string,

Did not come with bracelets
The necklaces are great, but the package only came with 12 necklace cords and NO bracelets. I could have gotten them cheaper at Michael's

So easy for young kids
These are great to prevent spilled beads. We used them for our 5 year old’s birthday. She could have used something like this as a 3 year old though! The one thing I would warn against is that the bracelets are very large. You would need to present them as anklets for kids.

These were perfect for my daughter to be able to make her own bracelets and necklaces.

Only necklaces. No bracelets.
Not as advertised. Only contains necklaces and no bracelets. I got a replacement thinking the first order was a fluke but the replacement also only has necklaces and no bracelets.

Great for toddlers!
My daughter is 3 and she does so well using these. She can take them off and put them on herself. The beads do not fall off if she hold the correct end (we're still working that a little bit). We use them with a Disney Princess kit that she got. Pony beads are the best size to use with the bracelets and necklaces. I agree with other reviewers that we got more of an assortment of colors. The bracelets and necklaces do not match 1 to 1, but it's not a big deal for us. I would buy this again.
