Best Kids' Jewelry Making Kits of 2026

"I gave this to my 3-year-old grand niece for Christmas, and by the end of the evening, she had already made her first necklace all by herself. It was definitely a huge hit with her."

"We got this as a travel activity for our daughter's 6th birthday. It was perfect for the car and she was able to use the easy clasp without help. The only minor issue was that the necklaces are a bit short for adults if your child wants to make gifts, but otherwise, it's a fantastic, self-contained set with an organized carrying case."

"My 3.5-year-old granddaughter loved this set! After we did one together, she could independently pick and count beads and choose a princess for each necklace. Highly recommend for this age group."

"The variety and vibrancy of colors blew me away, and the amount you get per color is impressive. Everything is well organized in the storage case, and the bands are great quality. I will definitely order again!"

"I like the stretchy and glittery bands, and the loom is really good quality. The metal hook is perfect for bigger projects. The only downside was my container arrived a bit broken, but it still works. Overall, a great starter kit with awesome colors!"

"I got this Melissa & Doug jewelry set for my granddaughter and it was an instant favorite! The beads are just the right size for little hands and the colors are so bright and inviting. I always trust Melissa & Doug for their long-lasting, quality toys—this one is absolutely worth it."

"My daughter and son have been using this kit daily since we got it. It actually turned out to be their favorite gift out of everything I bought this year! We’re running low because they’ve made so many things, so I’m already ordering another. The only thing is the glue runs out fast, so I’d suggest having extra on hand. Still, it’s the best craft kit we’ve had."

"I bought this for my granddaughter and she absolutely loves it. The kit is well-made, with lots of assembly options, and it's kept her engaged for hours.

"I purchased this kit for my 11-year-old granddaughter after reading positive reviews. The materials and overall kit quality are impressive. However, the instructions were tough to read and understand, even with a magnifying glass. My granddaughter, who has ADHD, lost interest quickly and moved on to another activity. Personally, I think the kit itself is awesome, but it might not suit every child."

"My daughter was so excited to use this friendship bracelet kit and loved making bracelets to share at school. The quality and size of the products are excellent. This kit introduced her to a new style of crafting, and she can't wait to make more!"

"I loved that this kit has so many different beads and letters, which let us create unique bracelets with names, words, and special messages. It was a fantastic way to spend quality time with my daughter—we enjoyed the creative process and the string was strong and stretchy. Highly recommend for fun, bonding, and keepsakes!"

"As a parent, I’m happy with how engaged my kids were with this kit. There are plenty of beads and string for multiple projects, and my son loves making gifts for family. The only thing I’d change is providing a better closure option for the bracelets, but it’s a small issue compared to the endless creative fun we’ve had."

"This bead kit was a hit at my daughter’s birthday party. The variety of beads and the cute unicorn case made it extra special. It’s an excellent activity for kids to practice fine motor skills and express themselves. I’ll definitely buy again—10/10 recommend!"
