"Countersigned with both hands" as we used to say in Poland:) I
couldn't agree more; on top of all the learning problems they might
encounter, lousy equipment is not something they need.
For small but interesting teaching patterns (in addition to Bev's
pillowless-plait), I highly recommend Paula Harten's series of patterns
for teaching children (she's just added two more -- very exciting --
ones to the ones previously published in the IOLI Bulletin). Each is
simple, each is quick, and each can be taken home as a finished
project.
