This year we made pi day pasta necklaces using the first dozen digits of pi. Here are some more if you are an overachiever:

Pi Day Necklace
What you need:
- beads or pasta you can string, in different shapes, sizes, or colors
- string or yarn
- scissors
- tape (optional)
We used more of our dyed pasta for this. F will be 3 this month and was able to follow the numbers I wrote down on his own so this seems like a good craft for the preschool crowd. He had a lot of fun choosing which (different) piece would come next and then counting them out and stringing them on. Just cut the string to your desired length, add a piece of tape to make the stringing end rigid, and start sorting and stringing them on. Simple and cute!

This project makes me want to hit up the local bead store and make my own pi bracelet!
