I'm stringing beads to make a pattern on the pipe cleaner. I made 2 patterns of 4 beads on 1 pipe cleaner: red, orange, brown, yellow; and light blue, light green, dark green, purple. I had to repeat it 2 times to say the whole pattern. Mama's longest pattern was made out of 12 beads.Q: What is a pattern? A pattern is beads on a pipe cleaner that is the same thing 2 times. Can a pattern be made of something other than beads? Yes! Cookies. Marker dots. Dashes. Markers. Crayons. Paints. You can make a pattern almost about anything. Where are some places you can see patterns in our house? Black keys on keyboard. Knitting on the blanket. Music basket.

How clever you are! Patterns are everywhere - even the way leaves and petals grow on a plant. Botanists use these patterns to identify what family a plant belongs to.
I use patterns when I quilt and sew.
