Water Cubes

These are small polymer clear cubes that grow to almost 200 times their size when put in water. For this one, I enlisted the help of my 6 yr old son and 10 yr old daughter. They each got a plastic cup and dropped 3 tiny polymer cubes into the water and then we watched and waited and waited…for 24 hours. Ok, we didn’t stand and wait for 24 hours, but we kept checking the cubes quite often. The kids thought this was really fun to watch because they could see gradual changes in the cube. They now want to take the whole bag of tiny cubes and put them in a tub full of water to see what happens. I have not decided yet wether we will do it. Watch the video to see what we discovered.

Cubes and Spheres are my favorite products

These and the polymer spheres are my favorite Steve Spangler products. I recently used the spheres as a visual aid for a teen fall retreat and the students almost came up out of their seats they were so surprised. After the lesson they rushed the stage to see them up close. They loved playing with them and of course they all wanted to know where I got them. Thank you Steve Spangler for these amazing products.
