Equipment:

• Scissors

Materials:

• Orange and black pony beads
• Stiff twine (polypropylene works well)

Instructions:

1. Cut a piece of twine about five inches longer than the size needed to go around the Tiger’s wrist.
2. Tie a knot in one end of the twine to keep the beads from falling off.
3. Thread one black bead and one orange bead onto the twine.
4. Take the loose end of the twine and loop it back through both beads. This will make the bracelet adjustable.
5. Tie another knot at the loose end of the twine to keep the beads secure.
6. Adjust the bracelet size by pulling on the ends of the twine to bring the beads closer together or farther apart.

Variations:

• Use different bead colors to represent your den or pack.
• Let Tigers add more beads or create patterns.
• Use embroidery floss or yarn if you don’t have twine.

Safety Tips:

• Make sure the scissors are child-safe.
• Supervise Tigers to avoid choking hazards with small beads.
• Help Tigers tie knots if they need assistance.
