Here's how to make a simple fidget toy using pony beads and a pipe cleaner. This method is based on instructions suitable for preschoolers, emphasizing ease and creativity.
Materials You'll Need:
- Pony Beads
- Pipe Cleaner
- Scissors (optional, for trimming excess pipe cleaner)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Pipe Cleaner: Start by ensuring your pipe cleaner has a little extra length hanging over the edges. You'll need this extra bit for securing the beads later.
- Slide on the Beads: Slide your pony beads onto the pipe cleaner. Get creative with patterns! Have fun and experiment with different color combinations.
- Secure the Beads: Once you've added your beads, twist the ends of the pipe cleaner to secure them, preventing the beads from sliding off.
