Uv beads experiment

This UV beads experiment is a super-popular activity with kids. To help students understand why the beads change color, they need to understand ultraviolet light. While studying the electromagnetic spectrum, you may want to add

Science Experiment: Instead of using your skin as a UV detector, do a test with simple white beads to see if the sunscreen you are using is effective. These beads change color when exposed to UV light. Knowing the effectiveness of your sunscreen will make your sun time more of a fun time.

Uv beads

In this activity from the Stanford University Solar Center, participants experiment with ultraviolet (UV) light-sensitive plastic beads, which are generally white but turn colors when exposed to UV light.

Explore the fascinating world of bioluminescence and then conduct your own experiment to see how effective it is for yourself.

What if protecting your kids from sunburn was as easy as putting on a bracelet? Guess what, it is! Summer is on its way and what's the best way to spend

Between cleaning, errands, and some lazy down time, we decidedKeep Reading

In this fun STEM activity for kids, children will design and build a structure to protect an animal craft (made from UV-senstive beads) from the sun. If the beaded animal changes color, students know the shelter did not work and have the opportunity to make improvements. This design challenge is a wonderful hands-on science and...

Rainbow science with water beads is a fun and simple science experiment exploring osmosis and color mixing. A beautiful experiment for kids.
