Similarly, scented Orbeez can also enhance the sensory experience by adding a pleasant fragrance. They come in various fragrances such as lavender, strawberry, and citrus. It’s important to choose the right beads that suit your intended use and create the sensory experience you desire. To grow Orbeez, the first thing you’ll need is a container to hold them and water. You can use any container, but it should be big enough to hold the amount of dry beads you want to grow. A clear container is ideal as it allows you to see them as they expand and grow. On the other hand, soaking them for a shorter period would leave the beads too small. Personally, I prefer to leave them in the water for around six hours – it strikes a nice balance of size and rigidity, suitable for use with my Orbeez guns.The next thing you’ll need is water. It’s best to use slightly warm water, as cold water can slow down the expansion process. You should add enough water to cover the top level of the balls completely. Finally, you’ll need the Orbeez themselves. This makes a fun learning experience for your kids. Not only can you teach how osmosis works (from growing the beads) but also how fluorescence works. You’ll be introducing a number of great scientific words to their vocabulary too – ultraviolet, transparent, quinine and so on. What About Phosphorescent Orbeez?

Just make sure you get it in a form that is easily dispersible in water. You don’t want to have to spend time breaking tablets apart with a hammer! The upside of zinc sulfide is that it is very cheap. The downside is that it doesn’t glow for very long and it’s not that bright.

Making your Orbeez (aka water beads) glow in the dark can be a fun sensory play experience for your children.
