Don't take your eyes off the white beads -- in the blink of an eye they change and burst into a rainbow of colors! Children uncover the hidden energy of ultra-violet light as they conduct a number of Energy Bead experiments detailed in the instructions.

These seemingly plain white beads have a secret.  They work as detectors of Ultra-Violet (UV) light.  Indoors away from sunlight the beads are white.  Outdoors the beads burst with color when in sunlight and go back to white when covered.  Use the beads to test sources of UV light and determine the UV blocking power of sunglasses and sunscreen.  Great for science buffs new and old!

You can also adorn a backpack with a string of these, or put on your beach bag.
