The beads have only changed in the sunlight, maybe it is only with UV Rays?

HYPOTHESIS
I think that only UV Rays change the color of the beads. Not just any old light.

EXPERIMENT
To test the UV Rays, we can cover 2 beads in sunscreen and put it outside, and check it every fifteen minutes. Same thing inside. We will check them three times

CONCLUSION
My hypothesis was that the uv rays where what made the beads change, my hypothesis was wrong. It was just any old light that would make it happen. I learned that it doesn't have to be a specific type of light for the mystery beads to change.

I LEARNED...
I learned that just light in general can make the beads work, not just UV rays.
