We love to work on crafty stuff, and you can find all of my crafty rosary resources for kids here.

This one decade rosary craft is super easy for kids of all ages! This would be a great Catholic craft for CCD or RE class, or any occasion really. October is an especially good month do rosary activities with Catholic kids because the month of October is dedicated to the rosary! This week we made it because we’re learning about rosaries with the letter “R”.

Materials Needed to Make A Pipe Cleaner Rosary:

• Pipe Cleaners (You can get a big assorted pack of different colors here)
• Pony Beads ( A big assorted pack of different colors for the beads is great for this one also!)
• Scissors

How To Make A Rosary For Kids

I got all of my supplies at the Dollar Tree, so this craft costs only $2 and makes about a million one decade rosaries. 🙂

Start by having your kids string 10 beads of their choice onto a pipe cleaner. (If you’re trying to conserve materials for a large number, half a pipe cleaner will work). This is super easy for everyone, especially small children, because pipe cleaners are stiff so the stringing is easy.
