The UV light detecting beads contain a unique pigment that changes colour when exposed to UV light from the sun or other UV sources. The darker the colour of the beads, the more UV rays they are detecting.

See the magic!

Use the UV Beads Discovery Kit for an engaging way to explore concepts related to light, colour, and more. Children will be fascinated to see how the beads change colour and glow when it's exposed to UV light. Observe and discuss the colour changes, before exposing to the light, when exposed to the light, and after it is exposed to the light.

Student can also use the laces to make their colourful and fun UV bracelets! The kit comes with ideas sheet for more fun project ideas.
