Overview
-
Use UV sensitive beads to test UV protection in sunglasses or sun cream. Great for educational science experiments.
-
Teachers can use UV-sensitive beads to enhance lessons on light and UV radiation. The beads change colour when exposed to UV light, providing a visual demonstration of UV presence. They are ideal for science experiments and discussions about sun safety.
-
In Science, these beads can be used to help children recognise that sunlight can be dangerous and explore ways to protect their eyes and skin. By observing how the beads react under different conditions, children learn about the effects of UV light and the importance of sun protection.
-
Children can experiment with the beads at different times of the day to see how UV exposure changes, linking it to seasonal changes and sun safety.
