Water Beads

Our household has discovered the joys of water beads!

The water beads start as hard small rock type substances.  After being soaked in water for 12 hours they form into gel like beads.  They feel a bit slimy and gooey; it’s a fascinating texture that Corbin adores!

He scoops them, pours them, feels them, and sits and watches the beads as he bounces them in the bowl.

The only caution is that you need to supervise the use of the beads closely so they do not go into the kiddos mouths. 

Corbin (and I… won’t lie, I enjoy them too!) love water beads!  They are so much fun!
