I picked these up at Target for about $15 and my daughter (3) and nieces (7 and 6) love them! They will play with them for an hour or so without any problem! They show off their creations, and ohh and ahh over eachothers' projects. They best part is that there are a generous amount so my 3 year old doesn't hoard them and not share. Now if they had a game that made sharing fun.......... =)

I like the pop beads from Parents a lot, however was extremely disappointed when I found out that Target carries them for $16 ($15 and some odd cents plus tax) and I paid nearly $40 from amazon and the store that was selling them online. I will definitely think twice before purchasing from this over priced site again.

My daughter recently got these as a present and she loves them. She is almost 5 years old. She will sit down with these and play with them for over an hour while constantly brining me necklaces and bracelets to wear! I even have fun sitting with her and designing some. Also you can get them at Target for $15, not sure why they are asking so much here.

I have a six year old daughter with pdd-nos & bad fine motor skills and her OT from school recommended them. We have a good time popping them together, making all kinds of "jewelry". A definate must to help with the strengthening of the hands by having fun. There is ALOT in that jar, I even split them up and we still have enough for a good time. Target was fast and easy to deal with, will order these again if we ever run low. :)

These beads are wonderful! My grandson is autistic and he loves spending time making patterns and playing with the beads. He loves them and uses them to reinforce colors, shapes, numbers and patterns. This is a great educational toy.
