No Nasties water beads are non-toxic, easy to use and encourage children to learn through sensory play, using hand-eye coordination - they are "slippery little suckers!" They are teeny tiny little beads, about the size of a poppy seed before they are soaked in water after which they grow approximately 150 times their original size.
What's Included 10g of water beads (approximately 500 beads) | Various pack sizes available Packaged in a recyclable soft plastic bag and a recyclable cardboard box with instructions
How to Use To grow them, you 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. One they have grown, drain away excess water and voila, you have a bowl of slippery, colourful, bouncy, ball fun!
How do you use No Nasties Water Beads? You are limited only by your imagination when it comes to our water beads – which is what makes this product so awesome for all ages.

Adults I LOVE the feel of water beads! Full disclaimer, they are addictive to play with! In a gorgeous glass bowl on the bench, they are pretty and colourful and the feel of them is such a stress release. Dip your hand into a bowl of these and they feel amazing!

I have bought several of these now in different colours. We don't have a bath but play with them on a mat on the deck & easy to scoop them all back up to put back in bowl. They provide hours of fun for my 2 year old Grandson spooning them out & putting into different containers.

Hours of fun!
The kids love these!! They've been a real hit in their water play table but they have just as much fun swishing them around in a bowl...or bouncing them on the lino! 🤦🏼♀️😅
We know you'll love...
