 Love this! Aug 16, 2010
My 3 1/2 yr. old grandson loves this. I gave him a set to take home. His mother got up the next morning and saw it sitting out on the coffee table and thought it would be ruined! She realized when she picked it up that it hadn't dried out. Great for little ones and is not messy.
 Tactile Treat Aug 11, 2010
When it comes to fine motor skills as a teacher and a mother, I have to say that clay or Play-Doh are really hard to beat. However, this adds a new texture for preschool children. It feels sticky, but not so sticky you can't get it off anything and the foam beads let young children feel something besides smooth. Older children may be frustrated if they are artists who like smooth perfection to their shapes, but to simply mush around into large shapes, it's fine. My three year old likes to make ice cream cones and snails. Beforehand,I'd certainly clean the floor and table where your child is working, it can collect dirt and hair very easily.

A little disappointing Jul 31, 2010
This stuff is pretty cool - fun to play with, not messy, and you can make some cool sculptures. Yet, the sculptures tend to fall apart after a couple days and you have to continue to massage the stuff together. It's quite a chore, and eventually your dinosaur's head will fall off onto the table. As long as you're cool with that, go for it!
My girls love it! May 31, 2010
Both my 1.5 year and 3.5 year old girls love this. They make all sorts of fun things. Of course I had to teach my 1.5 old that you don't eat this but once she figured that out I felt safe leaving them alone to play with it. It's super easy to clean up and it doesn't stick to everything, it clings but doesn't stick. Of course being the age my kids are they did mix all the colors together but at least it's not like paint which would be brown/black if mixed all together. It's just a bunch of colorful balls mixed together :) I'm glad I got this for them!

 Fun to mush, but difficult to mold Apr 05, 2010
Let me begin by saying this stuff is fun. It is a great tactile experience, and even as an adult, I can't resist mushing the stuff in my hands. It is virtually mess free, has only the faint smell of styrofoam, and does not dry out. Also, when kids mix the colors together, which is inevitable, it creates a pleasant rainbow of colors, rather than an icky, muddy color. My only complaint, therefore, is in the area of moldability. Although it is very pliable, it is difficult to create quality structures. It is similar to trying to create a work of art with marshmallow rice crispies. Therefore, I wouldn't recommend this for the budding sculptor--However, for toddlers and preschoolers, it is tons of low-maintenance fun.
