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?

This looks like a lot of fun! I would like to make a caterpillar too…with different little balls of colors. Thanks!Kristin
My kids would love to play with this even tho they are older than preschool age. I think they would make sea creatures for sure.
I don't subscribe to your blog but I do visit it daily. No need to remind me by email. LOL
I must tell you my son, Joey and I love American Idol. He drew American Idol with his window crayons the other day. It was very colorful. So we would probably make "Erican Idol" (as Joey would say) with our play foam. And yes, he would mix the colors as well and just make me cringe 😉
I love the sparkle foam!!! Thanks for the chance to win, I can see my daughter making tonnes of flowers with this. I, and my artistic crafting ability, would be making snowmen and snakes.
