I get mine at Discount School Supply: www.discountschoolsupply.com.
They are $4.99 for 500 in a multi-color pack. The beads change almost
instantly and return to white as soon as they are away from the
sunshine. The last time I did the activity, I also bought
glow-in-the-dark beads (also $4.99 from the same place) so that when we
came back inside to the planetarium the bracelets would glow green. I'm
not sure that aspect has as much scientific value. I just liked the
dual use.

All,
There is a better site than Educational Innovations located in
Ohio. It's more of a specialty bead place, but it's CHEAP, CHEAP,
CHEAP!
Here's the Link: http://www.bolekscrafts.com/pony_beads.htm
Have Fun!
