Glow Sticks & Water Beads

Another fun activity to do with water beads is take them into a dark room and throw in some glow sticks. It makes them so much more fun to play in!
We put everything in a big bowl and then headed up to the bathroom (the only room without a window!) and turned off the lights. Lil Lady got soo excited!

If you don't have glow sticks on hand, go get some. They are awesome. We use them for all sorts of fun sensory activities. I buy mine at the dollar store by the handful! 

See how fun it looks to have them light up the beads? Pictures don't even do it justice. It makes them change color and adds a fun new dimension of play.

Just beware, your child my like to dump the beads everywhere making it quite fun to find where they bounced to in the dark! Also beware they just may want to play with this one for a very long time and bathtub edges aren't too comfy after a while!
