Are your kids creative? Are you looking for a Korean alphabet set? Make your own colorful set together with Perler beads!

Practice naming colors and shapes in your target languages, while building and creating fun trinkets! Teach your child the Korean alphabet and the letter sounds as you create them together. When you are done, you have a complete set of alphabet toys to use in future activities – we turned ours into magnets for our fridge!
Our kids are big fans of Perler beads! They love to create their favorite Pokemon and video game characters, so they are very familiar with the process. Before making our Hangul set, we played with the beads and created fun designs. The kids were able to exercise their creativity while also squeezing in some language education!
