We received a My Chord Friendship Bracelet Maker to try out and review. My chief toy tester and I worked together on this review and opinions are 100% our own.
Over the Fourth of July we were on Cape Cod and our days were filled with all sorts of activities. I always like to make sure that there are plenty of things for the kids to do so that they don’t get bored. Eva is enjoying crafting and creating so I decided to bring the My Chord Friendship Bracelet Maker with us on the trip. I was right, she was excited to play with this and create friendship bracelets.
The product, like everything that I’ve reviewed from the Choose Friendship Company, is well made and has great functionality. The My Chord Friendship Bracelet Maker is made to look like a guitar and when chords are attacked to the maker it looks like the strings of the guitar. The chords themselves fit nicely into a slide out drawer on the side of the maker. The maker comes with ten pre-cut cords so that you can create 5 bracelets. There are also instructions on how to create the Square Knot and Corkscrew bracelets. Once your child masters those patterns and before they get bored check out a whole bunch of additional patterns on the My Friendship Bracelet Maker Blog. More patterns will be added as more designs are created by users of the maker.
We tried the My Friendship Bracelet Maker way before Eva had any fine motor skills to use it and now that she is older she took right to this new type of friendship bracelet maker. Maybe it is because of the two chords or maybe because she is older she did an excellent job with the maker once I showed her how to use it a couple of times. Once I showed her what to do she had no trouble finishing the bracelets all by herself. It is a perfect gift for a crafty kid in your life.
