Arabella from Shreveport writes: I really want Orbeez and I think I’m getting them today. So, put your Orbeez in a cup– try clear and a color of your choice. Then, you can turn out the lights if it’s not nighttime. Turn on a lamp and put the cup filled with Orbeez under the lamp. It should make a really cool reflection. If you want, you can make animals with your fingers on the Orbeez reflection.

Lauren from Pflugerville writes: I think that you should grow Orbeez in shapes like hearts, stars and animals.

Crystal from Manville NJ writes: “Wouldn’t it be cool to have an Orbeez ferris wheel. Imagine the Orbeez going around on the ferris wheel then they could be let of into a funnel and dropped into a container. I think lots of people would enjoy it. I have Orbeez myself and I love them so much but one thing that makes me mad is when they smuch and I don’t really touch them that’s something you guys can improve on anyways ORBEEZ FARIS WHEEL!!!

Colby from Chicago writes: I think that you should make color-changing Orbeez.

Hannah from Gillett writes: i think you should make a flower and the outline moves so all the beads switch.

Ayanna from Baltimore writes: We play bowling. We get tiny bowling pins from toys and get rid of the ball and use the Orbeez.

Douglas from Clarkston writes: I think you should make Orbeez that don’t break as easily so your Orbeez last longer or you should make an Orbeez track to put your Orbeez down and watch them race.

Selena from New York writes: I’m a HUGE fan of Orbeez, and I’ve got a little idea…I think the company should make an Orbeez water park, which includes slides, water, Ferris wheels, swings just above the water, etc.

 

Check out these new suggestions and fan comments:

Ashley from Holstvill wants new molds: I think you should make more molds for the Orbeez like the peace sign and other things like animals, bugs and more.

Alex from Pennsylvania on BIG Orbeez: I think you should have Orbeez that can grow really big! I also think rainbow colored Orbeez would be cool!

Cydney C. from Dayton talks Ziplocks: You and your friends get gallon size ziplock bags, put some different colors of you Orbeez inside and some water so they don’t shrink. Make sure to close the bag tight so water and Orbeez don’t fall out. Take them to school and between your classes trade your colors with different friends!

Parker from Destin, Florida wants Orbeez to glow-in-the-dark: Hi I am an all time fan of Orbeez. I have been playing with them lately and I got the idea of glow-in-the-dark Orbeez.

Julia from Bonney Lake, WA on why she loves Orbeez: Hey Orbeez fans! My brother and me simply adore Orbeez. We play with them all the time. We have slowly created an Orbeez world out of plates, bowls and other things around the kitchen. We used spoons to connect the plates so the Orbeez can travel. We’ve created shops, spas, public pools and hot tubs. Each Orbeez family gets their own house (bowls). Like I said we love Orbeez!

Skylar from South Carolina makes sparkle Orbeez: If you have the clear ones then you can put them in a cup of water with food die your choice and some sparkles and let them soak for 2 days and you have your own sparkly colored Orbeez.

Shawn, a Mom from Mohawk asks if Orbeez gets rid of asthma: My daughter got Orbeez for Christmas. She also has a hard time breathing at night because are house is very dry. Since she has had her Orbeez balls in containers in her room I believe they have worked as some kind of humidifer for her bedroom and she sleeps a lot better and is not coughing as much and has not needed her asthma meds all winter she has needed neb treatments since she was a baby. Not once since she has had them in her her room. Maybe just a coincidence, or maybe they can provide a service for asthma victims.

The Orbeez Team: WOW! That is worth looking into. Thank you so much for the information. We wish your daughter excellent health and hope it keeps working.

Orbeez Ice Pack

Orbeez Grown

Jennifer, a mom of five from Senatobia, MS tells us: Recently I bought some of these to try out and show the kids how neat they were. After I “grew” them in water and we played with them, I placed the Orbeez in a snack-sized ziploc bag and came up with a GREAT use. Did you know Orbeez make a GREAT ice pack? While they were in the zip-loc bag, I placed them in the fridge for a short while until they became cold. When I took them out, they stayed cold a while. Put the bag on scrapes, bumps and bruises and you have an instant ice pack! Just an idea from one parent to another!

The Orbeez Team: Thank you for sharing Jennifer. Aren’t they versatlie?

Sebastian from Holland has been experimenting: If you put clear Orbeez in a jar of water and wait until they are fully expanded then they will be clear. So if you put clear Orbeez in a glass jar and put a message in the back of the jar you will not be able to see it. But then when you slowly pour water in the jar you will reveal the message.

The Orbeez Team: What a great, out-of-the-jar idea!

Jordan from Nashville: You should make Orbeez glow in the dark or mix the colors to make new colors.

The Orbeez Team: That seems like a very popular idea!

Owen Langan from Wyckoff, New Jersey: I think that you should make Orbeez that are different shapes like hearts squares etc.

The Orbeez Team: Yes, a lot of our fans are asking for different shapes. Thanks for sharing.

Payton from Plano sounds like a real Orbeez fan: Orbeez rock!!! My sister and me grow them and then put them in their tank and pretend as if they are pets! I got like a thousand for my b-day and I LOVE THEM!!! If you are unsure if they are a good toy for your kids, they sure are!!!!!!!! Parents, here is a great, safe, and fun idea for Christmas, birthdays:) or even a fun present!!!! :) peace out!!!! TRY THEM!!!!!!!!

The Orbeez Team: Payton: Call us when you graduate—we might have a spot on our Marketing Team.

Cassie, a mom from Stroudsburg writes: My daughter and all of her friends are crazy in love with these things. It is the newest craze… and I notice they all walk around with their Orbeez in water bottles. I think there should be some kind of bottle that they can fill with the water and maybe some kind of twist-off bottom so they can let the water out but not have to empty out the Orbeez.

The Orbeez Team: We love when we get mom endorsements. Thank you for sharing.

Orbeez Bounce

Joe from Dallas has a game idea: You get red Orbeez and blue Orbeez and take the blue Orbees and try to knock the red Orbeez. It only neds one player.

Orbeez Team: Sounds like a fun way use of Orbeez!

Ella from Grand Rapids: I thought of something spectacular!!! You should make “Orbeez fun Faces.” They are Orbeez that turn out with a face such as happy, sad, angry and sour!! They form with a face once they grow in the water full size. I think they will attract 5-8 yr olds because they are funny, fun to play with, and of course ORBEEZ!!!

The Orbeez Team: Excellent idea, thank you!

Terri from Maine has an elaborate Orbeez idea: An Orbeez play-set would be wicked! Maybe a water park with slides that go down into a pool of water and have little floats that have a rounded bottom that the Orbeez could sit in. Another play-set idea is a playground! You could have slides that go down and swings that the Orbeez could sit in and maybe a jungle gym! Or a farm! You could have horses and a saddle that you put on with a round bottom and the Orbeez just sit there and enjoy the ride and for the farm idea you could have like farms trucks and the Orbeez could drive it and have a farm house with mini Orbeez as kids and big Orbeez (size you have now) as the parents/teenagers. Please consider this idea.

The Orbeez Team: Wow—a lot of thinking went into these ideas.

Brittany from Pittsburgh: I think that your company should make a super bouncy ball that you can customize or even create something in the opposite of Orbeez. Instead of having things grow why not have the orbs shrink?

The Orbeez Team: Now that’s thinking out of the box!

Kristina from NY, Staten Island has a list of suggestions: I think you should have a race track for Orbeez . Or you can make: an obstacle course, orbeez ocean/pond/ home filled with water for Orbeez, and Orbeez bigger buddy/plush Orbeez filled with water/regular plush Orbeez. Also make an Orbeez bed/ sheets for beds. Maybe even Orbeez cups. Orbeez clothes!!!!!I love Orbeezzzzz!!!!

The Orbeez Team: We’ll get right on it!

Mad from Buffalo has this idea: I think you should make exercise balls out of Orbeez so people can have fun when they are exercise!

The Orbeez Team: What an original idea. We like it.

Caroline from Charlotte writes: What you could do is lay Orbeez on the floor and lay on them then slide around on the floor.

The Orbeez Team: Have you tried it?

Terrie from Maine: Hey i think you should make more Orbeez colors more then just 9. One color I’m pretty sure you don’t have is black. I think black would be cool because it would look solid and hard so you could surprise your friends. Another color i don’t think you have is red. Red would be a nice addition to your Orbeez collection and brighten up the selection a little more. Also my best idea for a color yet is different color Orbeez. For example, White with Black spots, Blue and Green, Pink with black or blue spots, silver, and other cool composes! Please consider these cool colors and patterns. P.S my fav. combo is white with black spots, zebra stripes, and black with white spots.

The Orbeez Team: Good thinking. It’s actually tough to make white or black Orbeez because of the pigment needed. But we like the idea color combinations. BTW, we do have red.

Ella from Grand Rapids writes:
You should make “Orbeez Figures” — it should include 500 Orbeez,and a machine where you can pile up Orbeez and they stick together! That also includes eyes,noses,and mouths! You can make faces and let it dry,and then you have a figure! Then kids can play with them and have little playsets that the figures can play in!

The Orbeez Team: Sounds like fun!

Grace and Carson Parker from The Woodlands have this idea:
You put a few Orbeez on a slide, it slides down into the miniature pool or hot tub, one slide for the pool, one slide for the hot tub, a ladder-looking catapult for a ladder into the water, a bridge to the catapult and the slides, package comes with 5 Orbeez floaties, 2 Orbeez beach balls, 5 drinks, 5 plates of food, 5 towels, 2 hammocks, a baby pool setup, a swim-up snack and drink bar, a baby duck slide for the baby pool, restrooms, lifeguard setup, a souvineer stand, 2 first aid kits, water roller coaster, a lazy river, a bucket filling up with water to dump on guests, food bags, food, lawn chairs, water bumper cars, a bus, a map stand, ticket stands, cd’s, a boom box, speakers, all the above before the words, “package includes”, palm trees, and a pet pool. A separate package can include a hotel resort with everything you would find in a 5-star hotel, including, mini soap bottles, room service phones, televisions, and bathtub/shower.

Orbeez Team: Wow, now that is elaborate. When you graduate you should think about a job designing toys, or hotels!

Miss Berry, a teacher from Hallsville writes: I use Orbeez in my science classroom to inspire my students to create experiements. They come up with testable questions and then perform the experiment to test their ideas. The kids love it!

Orbeez Team: We love it too. Thanks for sharing and for  inspiring kids to enjoy science.

Bubble Bath Fun

Spencer of Kansas City writes:
“What you should do is make an orbeez bubble bath have a bath tub and then have little figures to put inside of it. Next fill the tub with Orbeez to make it look like a REAL BUBBLE BATH. That would be so much fun for kids to play with and I know about 300 small kids that would LOVE IT just in my school district.

The Orbeez Team: We think that sounds awesome!

Orbeez: “We think that’s a great idea.”

Taylor & Christopher: “You at Orbeez should let Orbeez lovers put glitter in them or paint.”
