Needlework for Kids

by Deb on March 24th, 2006

Most of the needlework charts and kits (of whatever specific sort) are geared for the older child or adult. Even the beginner cross stitch kits I have seen for sale, are too complex for toddlers and preschoolers.

If you have a child in your life who is young, or whose motor skills are not developed enough yet to manipulate the finer threads, canvases and needles, the answer is a lacing card. I remember owning a set of large buttons and such with a lace which I could “sew” with. I had a lot of fun with that until I outgrew it. Lacing cards, however, look like even more fun.

Luckily, there are a lot of options on the market.
