The Happy Little Loom is powerful mind-building product for both girls and boys. Weaving requires us to focus both physically and mentally on a task. There are tremendous cognitive developmental benefits children gain from learning to weave and sew at a young age. Not only is it a useful life skill with practical applications, it requires concentration and focus, develops grit, perseverance, problem-solving skills, hand-eye coordination, and fine motor skills. It challenges left brain thinking and it's a great way to stimulate and express creativity and individuality. The various tasks involved, such as following patterns and color coordination, also stimulate creative and critical thinking. Completing a project also boosts self-confidence. I also liked that it's pretty durable too.

The directions were easy to follow and we ended up with a nice little bracelet! The videos on the website were very helpful and inspiring for my daughter. This is the perfect activity for rainy days or quiet time.
