Remember playing Cat's Cradle when you were little? I do! With my Grandma!

String games are one of the oldest games in human history, involving creating various string figures, either individually or by passing a loop of string back and forth between two or more players. Games can range from simple to complex, so practice and patience are required! Many parents carry string games along on trips, to restaurants, and visits with relatives as a way to pass the time and share tricks with their children.

  • Open-ended play with String Games will keep children amused as they use their imagination to create different patterns and unique shapes!

So much fun!

My six year old son is in love with his strong game. I had no idea what a huge hit it would be. Such a wonderful, simple toy. Thank you!
