4M Green Creativity Recycled Paper Beads

Ages 5+

Turn yesterday’s magazines, newspapers and scrap paper into colourful jewellery with the 4M Green Creativity Recycled Paper Beads Kit. This clever eco craft kit gives kids the tools to transform strips of paper into tightly rolled beads, ready to thread into bracelets, necklaces, garlands and their own creative designs.

Once the included paper is used, the creativity does not have to stop. Kids can collect suitable scrap paper from around the home or classroom and keep making new beads, introducing recycling and reuse through a hands on activity they can actually enjoy.

Designed by 4M, a brand known for quality educational science and craft kits, the specially designed bead tool makes rolling paper beads simple and satisfying. It can even be attached to most recycled drink bottles, turning the bottle into handy bead storage and giving another everyday item a clever second life.
