She really likes it but still needs some help. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/loom-potholders#post-2922217 Tue, 26 Jan 2021 10:22:35 +0000 bhbee 2922217@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree that they can do some of it earlier but to really do it on their own 6 may even be optimistic, depends on the kid. I remember my daughter doing one about age 5, but the bands kept falling off the hooks around the edges and she got frustrated. I finished it because I like that sort of thing :silly: </p> <p>Some kits may be better than others at keeping the loops on, maybe </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/loom-potholders#post-2922214 Tue, 26 Jan 2021 07:57:34 +0000 Mrs. Starfish 2922214@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>One of my four-year-old girls was introduced to this activity at preschool. She got one for Christmas from grandma and I'd say she can definitely work on the more simple parts of making the potholder, but needs a lot of assistance when it gets tricky. I don't know if that's helpful! :silly: She also gets frustrated really easily, which makes the whole activity a definite grind at this age... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/loom-potholders#post-2922196 Sat, 23 Jan 2021 21:31:14 +0000 meadow 2922196@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At what age are kids ready to make loom pot holders? </p> <p>I'm seeing kits that say 6+ curious if anyone had kids that could make them earlier..... </p>
