1.5 hours later, ooh ahh!
~~~
A couple more hours...
~~~
After 4 hours...
~~~
We let them sit in the water overnight. This is what we woke up to!
~~~
Then the fun began. Mommy got out some baby food jars. We filled each jar with one color bead to see if an equal amount of each color would fill the jars. It took a different amount of each color to fill the baby food jars. 36 yellow, 48 pink and 42 white.
~~~
We cut some open.
~~~
Then Turkey decided to take a sample of a water bead...
~~~
...and see what it looked like under the microscope.
~~~
Mommy wanted to take a picture but couldn't. It looked like dozens of tiny prisms. It was so beautiful!
~~~
Some of the water beads didn't grow very big.
~~~
That night Daddy put some water beads in baby food jars with finger lights and made us night lights!
They were so much fun we did the whole thing over again the next week! :)
