What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · May 23, 2026
This is the replacement findings pack for the APH Braille Beads Starter Kit — the hardware components like clasps, wire, spacers, and other jewelry-making findings used to assemble braille bead projects. Braille Beads is a tactile literacy activity where learners string beads shaped to represent braille cell patterns, reinforcing braille letter recognition through hands-on making. It's designed for students who are blind or have low vision and are learning braille, typically in early literacy stages. This pack is a consumable replacement, not a standalone kit — you need the Braille Beads Starter Kit (1-08879-00) for the beads themselves and instructional materials. Stock up on these if a class uses the program regularly, as findings tend to run out before the beads do.
