We love Play Foam! It’s fun to squish, squeeze, and easy to mold! I think I’m asked almost daily if we can get out the Play Foam.
Play Foam is a fun way to create just about anything you can imagine! It’s like play-doh, but never hardens, there’s really no mess to clean up since it sticks to itself, and its super easy to mold. I think for preschoolers it’s a great way to go, sometimes my daughter gets frustrated with things like model magic which is much harder to form.
Are you a mixer? I’m not a mixer, I like to keep my play-doh, play-foam, moon-sand and anything else of color separate. My kids are mixers.
Except my son, my beloved son, he shares my need for order. He did a wonderful job of keeping his Play Foam separated out by color. These are caterpillars.
See…look at those nice blobs of color, all nice and separate.
Then there’s my wonderful daughter…she’s a mixer {gasp!}. She has a flair for color and mixes anything she can get her hands on. Play-doh, paint, moon-sand, and yes, my brand new Play Foam. I’m trying to embrace her artistic flair.
And I have to admit, it is a beautiful house, ;o)
So are you sold yet? Easy. Colorful. No Mess. No Clean Up. Fun. How about now?

Oh how fun! LOVE new play sensations! I can only imagine the things that will be made, but it looks like it would lend itself to lots of sea creatures or underwater world fun! Thanks for sharing this great resource!
Looks like a lot of fun. I'm sure my daughter would make all sorts of things!mattvaleiler at gmail dot com
How cool is the play foam! I think we'd make characters from our favorite books. I suspect my daughter is going to be a mixer…Ledys. E. Chemin @ gmail. Com

I don't just love the foam…I love the store! I can't wait to keep browsing their cyber aisles. But as for the foam…I would definitely use it with almost 4 year old to work on letter recognition with the alphabet mats I just printed for him! My daughter would love to help play "teacher" with him too. And I think my 4th grader would love making countries and/or continents with it! Fun! Thanks! tanzie213@yahoo.com…danielle
