This putty is way too hard, can't even take it out of the container. It smells horrible as well.

Very disappointing
This wasn't like foam at all. Very difficult to work with & didn't really see the point of it. The children soon lost interest but adults thought there must be more to it…. But there wasn't. Complete waste of money. It's now sat in a cupboard & I expect that's where it will stay

We're sorry to hear that you were unhappy with your purchase of Playfoam Putty. Unlike the original Playfoam, the Putty has been designed with sensory, fidget play at the forefront rather than creative play.

Doesn't dry out!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this play foam! My 3 year old loves building little balls with it, and I like sitting and playing along side him as well. Doesn't dry out!

Fun for kids of all ages!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Although this putty was firm and hard to form and make things out of, my 4 year old loved the colors and the texture of it!

Less Foam More Putty
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am not sure if the product set too long, but my putty foam was a little hard and it didn't stretch well when I finally kneaded it back to life. When I pulled the foam out of the container it wasn't the soft putty that I was expecting it was very firm and I had to use some muscle to get it it sort of soft. It didn't stretch very well either, when I stretched the product out it tore easily. I think the product would have been super cool if it was a little softer.

Super fun!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter adores all things slime and putty. She was pretty excited to try out the Playfoam Putty. One color was a bit hard at first but did loosen up with some play. The other colors were perfect. She has spent hours playing with her putty!

Great sensory play..
Having two typical boys, who are absolutely obsessed with all things slime, when I saw these, I thought they would be perfect for them. They come in 4 bright colours, which are very appealing to them. It's like a mix between slime, and Playfoam.. but very mouldable. When you squeeze it, it makes a cracking sound. It's very easy to manipulate into different shapes, but them can pull apart again to be more like goo. This is fantastic for me as a parent, as it doesn't stain surfaces, clothes or hands, and is so easy to clean up afterwards, as all you have to do is squish it together again. Being reusable is a big bonus. It stores away nicely in the little tubs ready to use again next time, which saves so much time and mess making slime. It is a fantastic sensory toy for both adults and children and a great stress reliever! Thoroughly recommend!..
