Overview
Slippery, sensory unicorn fun!
The No Nasties Limited Edition Unicorn Bubbles Water Beads are a fun sensory toy now in pretty unicorn pastels! These water beads promote learning and development in areas such as fine-motor skills, coordination, exploration, colours, and creativity. Additionally, they're a fun introduction to scientific and mathematical concepts such as absorption and expansion.
These "slippery little suckers" start off as teeny little beads about the size of hundreds and thousands bits, and grow to approximately 150 times their original size once they're soaked in water.
You're only limited by your imagination what you can do with these fun waterbeads, making them a great option for all ages (3 and up!).

WARNING! Not suitable for children under 3 years, contains small parts.
CHOKING HAZARD - small parts & small balls.
Keep unexpanded water beads away from children under 6 years as they present an ingestion hazard.
Do not swallow or eat this product or the soaking water.

These water beads are non-toxic, but are not suitable for human or animal consumption - they are not a food product. We recommend washing your hands thoroughly before and after contact and to keep the water beads as clean and hygienic as possible. Rinse off with water mixed with a little hand sanitiser once every few days.
How to Use
To grow your waterbeads, simply put them into a large bowl and cover with 5 cups of water and watch them expand over the next 5 or so hours. PRO-TIP - Use warm/hot tap water for faster growth.
Once they have grown, drain away excess water and, voila, you have a bowl of slippery, colourful, bouncy ball fun!
