I'm looking to buy some lacing beads for my daughter but I can't seem to find any websites that sell them (and the ones that do are sold out). I'd appreciate any links to websites that sell them! Thanks

kazoo toys sells them. not sure what their web address is exactly. i got an "easy-make snake" at target. it's got about 10 big beads and then voila! it's a snake too!

I bought some at target, in their new wooden toy section. I's a cute little snake.

They were $15.

Toys R Us carries the Melissa & Doug brand (nice wooden, educational toys), and they make several types of the lacing beads.

My dd has a couple of lacing things and my FAVORITE (and the ones she mastered first) were by 'Ryan's Room' and I found them at Target, right next to the lacing snake. They are a little 'town' and oh-so-cute. The best part about them is that the 'thread' has a large, wooden needle on the end and can be made shorter or longer with an extension.

Thanks for the replies. I guess I should have specified - I'm in Canada and we don't have Target here. I'm looking for online stores because nothing around me sells wooden toys. Costco doesn't sell toys except at Christmas time and Toys R Us has only 2 M&D toys.

I'm on my way to the Kazoo toys place

Any other ideas are welcome!

You can get a lot of the M&D toys from amazon.com. I don't know how much they charge to ship to Canada though...

Amazon won't ship anything to Canada besides DVDs, books or CDs.

Try Gummy Lump:

I noticed that they do ship to Canada and I can tell you that they have great customer service.

Another choice may be Lakeshore Learning:

They have great products although I am not sure about their shipping regulations.

I've also used a shoelace (a boot one that is a bit stiffer is better) and old wooden thread spools, which I happened to have around.
