***HELP*** Polly Pocket Bead Machine!!!

[Gillian76]

DD got this for Christmas and wants to play with it for the first time this afternoon.

BUT... She has lost the instructions and we can't figure out how to "load" it!

Anyone got one and can help us figure it out please?

you put the beads in the top 3/4 thingsy, then press the levers and the balls fall down, to your right you have to thread the teeny thread through the eye of a needle and tie a bead to an end of it so the beads dont fall off, keep ahold of the thread. Very fiddly.

Oh thanks Charliecat! I was wondering how to stop them falling off!

Will give it a go

Let me know how it goes, the things you get with it to hold the thread together DO NOT WORK you have to tie a knot..and you cant get the jewellry bits on till after..

Is that the green/pink clips like butterflies/flowers?

HAve made a string of beads with much ado - they kept getting stuck and I had to prise them out. How do we get the little charms on?

I put 1 on each bracelet, couldnt work out how to get any on in the middle of a bracelet, dont think you can, can you?

Dreadful toy! Far too fiddly for a 5 year old (or a 29 year old!) Will banish it to the top shelf til she's 10

Yep, far too fiddly isnt it? And I had instructions
