Water beads are for older kids with a grown-up right there. If swallowed, they keep growing and can cause a serious blockage, so keep them away from babies, toddlers, pets and any child who still puts things in their mouth. Count them out, count them back, and pick up any strays. For little ones, try our taste safe edible water beads instead.
Water Bead Sensory Play: Have you or your kids ever played with water beads? If not then you MUST! Water beads are such an amazing sensory experience! They’re squishy, slightly slimy, slippery, and just absolutely amazing!
This activity has quickly become one of MY favorites. In one extremely simple activity kids are exposed to science, sensory and fine motor exploration! Plus it uses essential oils that were amazing for calming my kiddos down before nap time!!!
