Review on ๐ŸŒˆ MarvelBeads 9.5oz Water Beads [Non-Toxic] Certified Rainbow Mix for Kids Sensory Play and Spa Refill BPA & Phthalate Free (Over 0.5 lb) by Matthew Peterson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Small package, but there's a lot in it.

The first thing I thought when I opened the box was that it was quite small. However, after creating a batch, I realized that this is probably more than I really need. The instructions are to mix 1 teaspoon of dried balls with 5 cups of water, a ratio that seems to work pretty well, resulting in a decent amount to play with. I imagine the entire reservoir would be enough to fill a decent kid's pool (which is a bit tempting, but I don't know what I'll do with it after that). I couldn't understand one thing. these are the colours: there are 10 colors on the container, but i don't really count that many. I see different shades of yellow, orange, pink, different shades of pink, blue, teal, purple and green. There are 9 in total and it is believed he had 2 different pinks although you really have to have them next to each other to even say they are different (they are basically the same color but one is cloudy and the other is cloudy). sure.) I have no idea what the 10th color is - didn't I get it, or is it even more subtle than the difference between pink? However, this is a pretty minor issue in my opinion as the color palette looks good. They get a little weird after playing with them for a while - less an issue with the balls themselves and more with all the dead skin cells and other nasty things that get into them as you play. Just add them from time to time and create a new patch - like I said, this container will do a TON of those things.

Pros
  • One year trial
