I wanted to do this with my daycare group Gr.3 & 4's but coiling it I think would be difficult for them. Is there an easier way of doing it for them?

to do coiling with aluminum wire is really a tough work; in this tut, coiling is an inevitable part, so i suggest you to refer to other beaded or ribbon projects which would be much suitable for children to do.
