FAQs

What age is this craft kit suitable for?

The Forest Bracelet Craft Gift Kit is recommended for children aged 3 years and over.

Is this kit entirely plastic-free?

Yes, the kit is designed to be completely plastic-free, utilizing wooden beads and a metal tin.

What are the materials included in the kit?

The kit includes a selection of wooden beads (leaf, mushroom, acorn, spherical), elastic cord with metal ends, all housed within a reusable hinged metal tin.

Can the tin be used for anything else after making the bracelet?

Absolutely. The reusable hinged tin is perfect for storing the finished bracelet, other small toys, craft supplies, or personal treasures.

Are the materials safe and sustainable?

Yes, the kit is UKCA, UKNI, and CE tested for safety. Materials are FSC certified where applicable, ensuring responsible sourcing.

What skills does this activity help develop?

This kit helps develop fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, and encourages creative expression in a hands-on, screen-free manner.

How large is the storage tin?

The gift tin measures approximately 81 x 53 x 16mm.

Is adult supervision required?

Adult supervision may be beneficial for very young children (e.g., age 3) due to the small parts, to ensure safe handling and assembly.

Troubleshooting

Beads are difficult to thread onto the elastic.

Ensure the metal end of the elastic is properly aligned with the bead's hole. If the elastic is too stiff, gently warm it in your hands. For younger children, adult assistance may be needed to guide the elastic through the bead.

Elastic cord is too short for a desired bracelet length.

The kit provides sufficient elastic for a child's bracelet. If a longer bracelet is desired, additional craft elastic can be purchased and tied securely to the existing cord.

Beads have become dirty.

Wipe the wooden beads gently with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh cleaners or submerging the beads in water.

Tin has a slight residue from packaging.

Wipe the inside of the tin with a clean, damp cloth and allow it to dry completely before storing items.
