Water beads are fast becoming a great tool for children's sensory play. With their bright colours, squishy texture, and bouncy material - what more could your little one want to play with?If you're unsure what water beads are, we're here to help. They're essentially water-absorbing polymers. They start out as small pellets but begin to expand when you add water to them.
Traditionally, florists use water beads in arrangements to collect excess moisture while also adding a colourful, decorative element. However, parents soon discovered that they can be used for a lot more than just flower arranging. The video below showcases some things you can do with water beads for sensory play to engage and stimulate your kiddos.
As the water beads tend to come in a variety of colours, they are ideal for teaching colour recognition. You can also use them to aid your child with number recognition and counting skills. If your child has sensory needs, playing with water beads will introduce them to new textures as they experience the beads' soft, squashy, and rubber-like feel.Water beads are usually made from non-toxic materials, however, because of their small size, they can be a choking hazard with the risk of getting stuck in throats, ears and noses.
