Activity and Bead Board

Renee' and Emma thought they would design a fun activity board that helps keep everything together. The boards have an inset so if you are using it for beading or making beady buddies your beads are on felt and won't roll off because of the lip. Add the cup hook to hold your cording. These are great for playing dice games and children games that require the kids to roll dice. That way the dice won't roll off the table and everyone has to go find them.
Perfect size for building our mini puzzles from Sunsout.
Use in the car while traveling, at home on your lap, in the hospital and on a camping trip.
