 View Instructional Video on YouTube September 25, 2008
Janet (Lascassas, TN)
There is a professional instructional video on YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yWlVhBOqkuo or search for Friendship Bracelet Wheel) that shows you step-by-step instructions and tips on using these wheels. I've ordered the wheels for my 9 yr old but haven't received them yet. We've watched the video several times and are very excited for them to arrive. I see many people are saying the instruction manual is confusing so I hope some of you find this video helpful.
Great toy for kids and adults! June 3, 2008

I purchased this for my 8 yr old. I love it so much that she hasn't had a chance to use it yet because I can't put it down. Unlike some other reviewers, I didn't think that the instructions were hard to understand. The wheels make 4 different bracelet patterns but the procedure is the same for all 4 patterns. All that differs is where you put the colors on the wheel to start. The bracelets are made by repeating just a couple of simple steps over and over again. The hardest part is that you move two strings, turn the wheel, move two strings, etc and if you look away from the wheel and then look back it can be hard to tell where you left off. My daughter may have trouble with it because it does take some concentration and you have to remember to mark where you left off before you take a break. The wheels are made of durable foam so they are very lightweight. I would recommend this for ages 8 and above.

I got this for my 9 year old for her birthday. She's really enjoying it and wants to make bracelets for all her friends. I've also made one and it is hard to put down. Once you get the basic instructions down, it's really easy. Something you can do while watching TV.
 Good educational toy but instractions are poor February 27, 2008
Ekaterina Tarassova (USA)
Interesting thing for my daughter but the instructions are not good at all. She found some on the Web and learned how to work with the square thing, but still can't do anything with the wheel.

Make very pretty bracelets February 7, 2008
Nancy
The bracelet made out of the friendship wheel is round and very professional looking. It has four patterns, one with little hearts, one with little diamonds, one with little flowers and one with stripes. I have made the one with little flowers and it is extremely pretty.
The bracelets are very easy to make, and I made the bracelets while watching TV, keeps my hands busy. But keep in mind that I am a grown-up.
