Editorial Review
Introduce children to the joys of weaving with this sturdy wooden peg loom, made just for beginners. Easy-to-read instructions with big diagrams make learning a snap. Weavers begin by looping heavy cotton string between the loom's slanted nylon pegs, forming the "warp" of their design. Then, using the long, plastic needle and brightly colored yarn provided, they weave the "weft"--the filling that goes over and under the string--creating designs and holding the piece together. In addition to a sense of accomplishment, children get the chance to practice math and fine-motor skills. They can use this 7.5-by-10-inch loom to create wall hangings, doll blankets, coasters, bookmarks, and more. Winner of the Oppenheim Toy Portfolio's Gold Seal Award. --Joan DeClaire

Customer Reviews

Peg loom
My niece asked me for this item for Christmas. She loves to do crafts and she is a very talented 5 year old girl. This item also keeps her occupied and provides gifts for her aunt (me). I think it is a fantastic item because it helps her with her fine motor skills, and it shortens the time she watches TV.

Not for my 5 year old.
The instructions aren't clear. I've had a hard time with it. I introduced it to my 5 year old. It sit on a shelf untouched. Hopefully in a few months she'll work with it again. I think it's for an older 6 year old.
