The No Nasties water beads are fun, versatile, educational and gorgeous to play with. They are 100% non-toxic and 100% biodegradable. Very easy to use and encourage children to learn through sensory play, using hand-eye coordination - they are "slippery little suckers!"
They are tiny little hydrogel beads made from high quality, 100% non-toxic polymer. Each water bead is the size of a poppy seed before soaked in water after which they grow approximately 150 times their original size.
What's Included

How to Use
To grow them, you simply put them into a large bowl and cover with 5 cups of water and watch them expand over the next 5-8 hours. PRO-TIP: Use warm / hot tap water for faster growth.
Once they have grown, drain away excess water and voila, you have a bowl of slippery, colourful, bouncy, ball fun!

We LOVE the feel of water beads! Full disclaimer, they are addictive to play with! In a gorgeous glass bowl on the bench, they are pretty and colourful and the feel of them is such a stress release. Dip your hand into a bowl of these and they feel amazing!
