09/19/2013

We had a package arrive in the mail a few days ago, and inside it were some water beads! What are water beads? Well, they're this:
$98?! Really? Luckily, I only paid $10.
You soak these things in water, and they expand from about the size of sesame seeds to the size of marbles. So today, Bobby, Charlie and I went to Target to get a container in which to soak them. The instructions say to add 1 Tbls of these little pellets to 10 cups of water. So Bobby counted out the cups for me, and we added the beads.
These had been soaking for about 20 minutes.

They're already quite a bit bigger!


This was after 3 ish hours




He had so much fun playing with them, and they're not even fully hydrated yet! The package says it can take up to 10 hours, so I know what we'll be doing tomorrow! This may end up being 10 of the best dollars I've ever spent.
