Short description<\/strong><\/td>\nThis time we have made some gel balls. It is not a very big experiment, but to do it with 2 children of 2 and 4 years old, it is better to do an activity as simple as this. They had a great time, and took their balls home as a souvenir. I don't think the balls lasted very long afterwards.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

\u00a0EXPERIMENTAL MATERIALS<\/h2>\n

For this experiment you will only need some gel beads, which you can buy at Alquera\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

STEP-BY-STEP EXPERIMENT<\/h2>\n

This experiment was very simple, there is almost no need to say anything about the step-by-step:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Take a few small balls. Be careful to take less than you think, as they take up a lot of space and you may run out of water.<\/li>\n
  2. Put the balls in water and wait for them to absorb the water.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    \"\"<\/p>\n

    3. Watch the balls in the middle of the water absorption, to see how they are doing.<\/p>\n

    4. It takes a few hours until the pellets are completely full and have absorbed the water. Because of the refraction phenomenon, it will appear that they have not absorbed any water.<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    EXPLANATION<\/h2>\n

    We have received some comments on this experiment. It should be noted that the experiment is conducted with a 2-year-old child<\/strong>Dani. With children so young you can't expect them to have fun and to discover something new. Playing with these first experiments-games, they will discover and get to know a new world that you will be able to expand little by little. The result of the experiment is that both children had a great time and are looking forward to making balls again. Something very simple but which is magic for them.<\/p>\n
