16. Water Beads

Water beads are small plastic balls that get larger when you put them in water. They’re squishy, colorful, and a lot of fun. Never seen them before? Check out Mr. Beast’s video where he filled up an entire swimming pool with Orbeez. We don’t recommend actually doing this, since it would be a huge pain to clean up! Believe it or not, these little water beads were originally designed for adults to use in potted plants. The dry soil drains out the water from the orbs as it’s needed, so you never over-water your plants. But younger kids like playing with water beads for sensory play. You can also reuse them by allowing the beads to dry in the sun.
