While browsing online I came across this project idea from a few creative moms and I got extra excited because we had all the materials on hand. If you have younger kids you are most likely going to want to get some plastic needles (I found these as Michaels on the beading isle), some string, breads, and it would be helpful to have an embroidery hoop to keep the fabric nice and tight. Then we strung beads, did another stitch, added some more beads, and so on.
