    DIY: Fun With Sensory Tub Of Orbeez And Much More

    By Motheropedia | Do It Yourself (DIY), Parenting | 41 comments | 27 June, 2017 | 0

    For the Love of Squishy Orbeez!

    We Love DIY’s in my family!! After a long summer break, the kids are back to school.

    While I’m totally getting them back in the groove,Β  I have to admit, I’m having a little bit of a headache keeping them away from the screen.

    My older one has spent quite some time on the screen in summer watching Toy Reviews, DIY’s, immersing himself in the opening of Kinder Egg surprises and then, Orbeez!!

    Wondering what these are? Ha, well I was at one time too!! After seeing some kid on YouTube having a fantastic time with these, we gotΒ  a few in our house too.
    They are super absorbent polymers!Β That’s for those who want the science.Β  OK, to me they are these tiny little gel type things that when you put them in water they grow to about 100 times their original size and become bouncy squishy balls of fun.

    A tubful of Orbeez has successfully managed to keep my kids miles away from TV!! It’s almost over a week since we’ve got them into the house, and nope, the fascination for Orbeez hasn’t diminished.

    Do see this uber cool video to believe how engaging and captivation this DIY Orbeez Fun can be!

    It’s reached a stage now where the Orbeez are being improvised upon to enhance their use to an entirely new level.

    Β Next blog post on more DIYs from Orbeez coming soon!

    • Jiya B Reply June 29, 2017 at 8:32 am

      I remember orbeez. We you to fill our water bowl and keep it to table. But with children we must keep a constant watch as this may be choking sometimes. I loved the colourful pictures.

      • Motheropedia Reply July 1, 2017 at 11:30 pm

        Jiya the colours are indeed gorgeous. Also, couldn’t agree more on the supervision.

    • Misha jain Reply June 29, 2017 at 9:08 am

    • Kavita Singh Reply June 29, 2017 at 11:23 am

      Never knew orbeez can be used to keep kids busy as well.πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚till now just thought it was a piece of decoration…Thank you for sharing this.

      • Motheropedia Reply July 1, 2017 at 11:32 pm

        Oh I tried to use them for decoration. They just found their way back into the hands of the kids!

    • Menaka Bharathi Reply June 29, 2017 at 2:03 pm

      This is so cool! Had never heard of these… Where did you buy them? And they’re safe? These will definitely keep Karma busy!

      • Motheropedia Reply July 1, 2017 at 11:34 pm

        Amazon has them. We however, found them at a local store. They are safe to play with. Ofcourse, non-edible! Make sure you are around her when she plays.

    • priyadarshani panda Reply June 30, 2017 at 9:36 am

      I have been waiting to try this with my son but waiting for few more months as he might just try tasting these ..looks so much fun

      • Motheropedia Reply July 1, 2017 at 11:35 pm

        Caution is good. Supervision is definitely needed.

    • Mahak @babyandbeyondin Reply June 30, 2017 at 12:06 pm

      These things are so much fun…I remember I used to play with them myself. My kiddo is still in the mouthing everything phase though so will have to wait to try this with him.

      • Motheropedia Reply July 1, 2017 at 11:39 pm

        You certainly must wait.

    • Charu Sareen Gujjal Reply June 30, 2017 at 12:50 pm

      This looks fun. We had a small pack of this at home too but then I had to get away with them as my kids still mouth their toys. I was very apprehensive to use them.

      • Motheropedia Reply July 1, 2017 at 11:36 pm

        If they are popping things in their mouths, then this is definitely not for them.

    • Anubhuti Seth Reply June 30, 2017 at 3:36 pm

      Hey…i completely forgot about them…thanks for reminding about them…going to do this soon. I usually used them as house decor thing .

      • Motheropedia Reply July 1, 2017 at 11:36 pm

        Hope you guys enjoy as much as we did.

    • Nayantara | MommyingbabyT Reply June 30, 2017 at 5:23 pm

      • Motheropedia Reply July 1, 2017 at 11:37 pm

        Thanks!! I’ll update you as soon as it’s done.

    • Shipra Trivedi Reply June 30, 2017 at 10:43 pm

      I like them for decorating my house. Still waiting for the time when I son would understand that putting them in mouth is NO NO.

      • Motheropedia Reply July 1, 2017 at 11:37 pm

        Yes. Best to wait if baby is in the tasting things stage.

    • priyadarshani panda Reply July 1, 2017 at 10:36 am

    About Me

    Before I became a mom I had dedicated myself to being an Educator. As a teacher I always counselled parents on the battles that went on in their lives as mothers. Once a mother, these battles raged within me. Having said this, I also sensed that mothers around me are always in conflict within themselves.
