I am asking for replacement items so we will be able to continue doing our cultural activities.
I teach children with special needs on an American Indian Reservation.
We need new needles and earring backs to continue making seed bead earrings. We also need more pony beads, ribbons, and cords to make beaded keychains, necklaces, and bracelets.
Beading is part of my students' culture. It also helps with eye-hand coordination, patterns, and creativity and strengthens fine motor skills.
Watching the students bead, I've noticed that this craft also calms their minds as they concentrate on their work.
