Water beads are one of the most popular items at The Homegrown Preschooler. Why? Because water beads offer a unique sensory experience for children. Research shows that when children receive adequate sensory input, neurons link up into synapses, rather than being gradually pruned away. Providing your child with a strong sensory diet helps build a comprehensive neurological network needed for higher level thinking.

Each pack of water beads makes 2 quarts of full size rainbow colored polymers, along with 10 ways to use them with children to provide the maximum benefit.  There are also instructions how to care for and reuse them.

Choose between packs of rainbow or blue and green. In addition to being beneficial for your child, they make the perfect present for a friend!
