50 Large Orbeez Magic Water Beads UK Seller Jumbo Ball, Crystal, Multi, 12mm

My daughter had lots of fun with these, they do take a few days for them to be ready. I was a little put off by some reviews but thought I would give them ago as they are so cheap. They do go into lumpy shapes before they are fully ready so they just bead leaving for longer.

Arrived tiny (like they are supposed to) I put them all into a bucket full of luke warm water for two days and they all tripled in size and did become large round water beads. Not a single one was misshapen or unable to hydrate. My 18 month old daughter loved playing with them and squeezing them to pop them. They are easily hoovered up. Great fun. Definitely recommend for sensory play time.

Didn’t expand as much as pictures say they will and every single one looked like a brain and broke apart as soon as they were played with 🤦🏻‍♀️ Wouldn’t buy again.

Left them in water for 2 days. All were perfectly formed. Nice and large! The key to this is patience - good things come to those who wait 😁

These are pretty good, though bear in mind they take a long time to grow to full size, somewhere beyond 15 hours but within 24 for me. After 24 hours they did break very easily, but they're lovely to play with if you're careful with them (or just go nuts and smush them into mush). Maybe if you can time it so you can get around 18-20 hours of growth time they might be the perfect size and a bit more robust.

I was going to write to the seller as they started growing VERY 'mis-shapen' . lumpy and soggy and I was hoping they would be ROUND but on the 2nd day of soaking they magically turned into large round firm balls not perfectly round some of them but GREAT FUN for my Grandson with Autism and I would recommend them especially this size for the price and I would buy them again now :-)

the reviews arent too good and after reading them i decided not too put all the balls in a once and it seemed to have workd as none clumped together

We left these in water for around 2/3 days. They were a really good size by day 3 and seemed safe for toddlers as no risk of swallowing. They are very slippy but little one had fun moving them around in a tray full of water. Would definitely buy again as a sensory treat for him and we only used under half the pack so we have the rest for another time.
