What are facts about orbeez?

Orbeez are small, absorbent polymer beads that can swell to many times their original size when soaked in water, making them popular for sensory play, decoration, and gardening. They are made from a superabsorbent polymer called sodium polyacrylate, which can hold large amounts of water. Orbeez are non-toxic and safe for children, but should not be ingested. Once they dry out, they can be reused by soaking them in water again, although repeated use may affect their size and texture.
