The Science of Orbeez:

Orbeez are superabsorbent polymers – that means they are made of several smaller molecules joined together. With the addition of water they can grow to more than 100 times their volume. If you just place a tiny Orbeez bead in water and watch it swell! The water will be absorbed into the spaces between the molecules. These polymers were invented for agricultural use back in the 1960s to irrigate crops during times of drought. Today you will find superabsorbent polymers in diapers to prevent leaks, in food packages to absorb liquid and in floral vases to hydrate cut flowers.

About the products I received:

Hoot Owl Hoot! Cooperative Board Game:

In this awesome game, you have to move all the owls from start to the nest before the sun rises. This game can be played with 2-4 players. Each of the players take turns, but they are all working together. At the start of the game, you place the sun token in the first space on the sun track and place 3 owls on the start spaces. Give 3 cards to each of the players. All of the players keep their cards face up in front of them so that they can work together to strategize how to move. This game can become more challenging by adding up to 6 tokens in the game. Because Hoot Owl Hoot! is a cooperative game players play any of the owls – no one player has a single owl , she is trying to get back to the nest.
