So much fun in a bottle

I took a bag of about a quart of the beads to work for a friend to see and take to her grandkids. Everyone had to get in on the fun. The beads were run their hands thru, found different sized beads, squeezed, squished, burst and anything else they could think of to do. They even pull out several to lay on paper towels to put on the break table and watch over the next week til they shrank back to pin points and took 10 out of the package I brought so they could see where to get them to watch them grow. Needless to say, they were a smash hit. My grandson is getting the all but the capfull that I brought to work for birthday on Saturday. I got more than 1 package. It he really likes them,as I'm sure he will, the plan is to fill up a swimming pool for him this summer and let him slide down into them (small kids slide at home). They're such fun!

Best birthday party investment

Bought 2 packages and was nervous when they came in. Package was size of my cellphone. Poured them in the kiddie pool and filled it up with water. After a couple hours added more water. The next morning my pool was full of these amazing jelly beads that kept the kids busy for hours.

I purchased 2 bottles of these water beads and let me tell you my kids including me loved these! I had no idea how therapeutic these are until I sunk my feet into the tub full of them. :) I highly recommend them. They're about the size of a marble. Also don't fill up your tub too much...for the 2 bottles, I filled only about 3-4" from the bottom of the tub with water.

Great for sensory bins!

These were great! I was afraid for the price that they would not be good quality, but they are fabulous! They have been in my sensory bin with 4 year old students with special needs for over a week and they're still holding up great! I will be buying more! Half of the container, approx 25,000 filled my 2ft by 1ft bin 3 inches deep in beads. GREAT PRODUCT!!

I'm a preschool teacher and I purchased these for my classroom and my children love them. I put them in our sensory table and they play with them for hours. Its a very calming activity

If you want water beads, this is the way to go!

I bought this product with the expectation of a few days play for myself and my children. We wanted to use them in a pool full of water for a little added sensory play and as a way to create unique memories within our family. This product has done just that! Here we are, roughly two weeks past the time that I bought these [and other] beads, and they have held up tried and true to their word. This is absolutely beyond my expectation and I am incredibly happy with our purchase. If you're looking for "water beads" otherwise called Orbeez, this is absolutely the way to go. Thank you so much for standing behind your product. Your customer service and making sure your guests are completely content with their product and their purchase is absolutely admired.

So much fun!!!

We have loved playing with these! Nearly 2 weeks in and still loving them. I poured the whole container into the bath tub and filled the tub a quarter way. In 3 hours they’d sucked up all the water so I added about a quarter the way again. That seemed to be enough and they were very bouncy. So much fun! We transferred them to a storage bin and left the top off. My 2 year old has loved playing with her waterbeads and talks about them constantly. We’re passing them in to a friend. Some are shrinking, others are breaking but for the most part they’ve held up well. No smell either. Would definitely buy again.

Amazing expansion

It's really amazing how these expand. I got them so I could do science experiments with my neices kids and let my neice use them in vases and flower crafts. The price seams very reasonable. 1tablespoon of dry particles will easely expand to a full liter bottle. Edit: I forgot to mention, they are very colorful and fun to play with.

Fun Activity for Preschool-Aged Kids

The package of these is compact for easy storage but it makes a ton of water beads! Just add water and the beads are enlarged within an hour, and stay that way for days. This a is fun activity for preschoolers. I put these in the backyard water table in summer.

Good, simple fun!

I bought these as a stocking stuffer for for my eight-year-old daughter this past Christmas. I prepared a small amount, about the size of a quarter, to show her after she unwrapped the package. That way she could see how they turn out after soaking in water overnight (instant gratification—so she could see exactly what I had given her). She was very excited to use them herself. Like others have said, they will get a little slimy with specs of mold if you leave them sit in water for several days. I drained the water rinse the beads and then put them back in the cup with a paper towel lining it. They did not shrink back to the original size, only to about the size of a pea. We can’t wait to put some in a tub of water and let her soak in them, preparing the Beads ahead of time of course. I found that some of them will crumble when they reach capacity but this is maybe one out of 20, and there are plenty more where they came from. Others have mentioned that they don’t get much bigger than a pea but when I was experimenting with them myself before Christmas, I would add a little more water each time the beads absorb all the water, and they would grow a little more each time. They finally maxed out about the size of a dime, maybe a little smaller. The pictures I included of the beads do not show the maximum size, I forgot to take a pic at that point. They show how big they are after I drain, rinse and let them dry in a cup.
