Sensory OVERLOAD!!

What on Earth??........


WHAT ARE THEY??


Waterbeads.....


they start out hard teeny tiny little beads......
add them to water and wait,
                                           and wait,
                                                        and wait!

They suck up the water (most of it anyway) and turn into this.....

slippery, sliddy, squishy balls!!


they are cold.....


They are jello.....

he just laughed.....


and this guy.......


.....he was there for over an hour.....
                                              which is a long time when you are two!

Others would come and go - but he stayed for a looooong time!!! 
                              we added scoops and spoons for some motor skills!! 
                                            he would scoop and pour,
                                                                      and scoop and pour,
                                                                                        he still asks to play with them!!

Definately going to have to buy these often!!  It is very soothing, calming, relaxing!!

  1. Jack loves those things. We got some in a steve spangler science kit last Christmas.

    Thanks to everyone in the Halloween swap, I have just enough hankies to get started on my quilt. Thank you for thinking of us though!
