Educational Insights Playfoam Pals Snowy Friends 6-Pack | Non-Toxic, Never Dries Out Playfoam | Sensory, Shaping Fun, Arts & Crafts For Kids | Surprise Collectible Toy| Perfect for Ages 5 and up

My girls (ages 9 and 5) are both into collectibles right now, so they were super excited to receive these. They couldn't wait to open them up and see what character they got. We ordered the 6 pack and so far I have given them 4 of the Playfoam Pals snow globes. I'm thinking of putting the final 2 in their stocking for Christmas since they loved them so much. They like playing with the foam, too. It's really cool because it sticks to itself but it won't make a mess or stick to your hands or clothes. It also doesn't dry out so they have been playing with it for several days now and it's just like new. The little characters are cute and my kids think it's funny and cute to pop their heads off and put them on other "bodies" (they are supposed to do this). I definitely would recommend this product as a fun gift or everyday surprise for young kids of all ages. Note: I received this product for free from Brilliant Minds and Educational Insights.

I have never seen my 3 year old play with something so long everyday then this stuff! She absolutely loves it and so do I, it’s really fun & the little critters inside are really cute! One of the reviewers complained that when they opened theirs up they were disappointed that the head was broken off but I happened to read on the packaging that the heads pop off and are interchangeable lol so maybe that was the problem. It has not been messy, if some of it falls on the floor or couch or bed it just picks right up, no staining or anything. It’s crazy cause it feels sticky when you touch it but it does not make your hands sticky which is nice. It does eventually collect hair and dirt etc. which makes it not hold together as well but she has had endless hours of fun with it before I had to sneak and throw it away. Customer service was great & I would purchase again.

My kids have enjoyed the mini hatchimals (that come in 2 pack blind bags) and they asked Santa for "Floof" for Christmas this year, so when I saw these I thought they would be absolutely perfect advent calendar gifts and I bought a pack. My children really enjoy kinetic sand, thinking putty, and Play-dough. They spend hours building play-dough villages and then stomping them flat with their plastic dinosaurs. Combining a plastic toy creature with a sculpt-able material is quite frankly a genius idea. The animals are very cute. My children adore them. In our pack of 6 we received 1 duplicate (but as I was giving 3 to each of my kids, they each just got one). We got 2 blue, 2 pink, 1 purple, and 1 green ball of play foam. They contained a seal, a penguin, a reindeer, a narwhal, and 2 wolves. The kids enjoy the PlayFoam. I think it is a bit sticky. It didn't leave residue on our hands, but the PlayFoam did pick up stray hairs and other bits of dust that were near by, do beware of that. I have my kids use art trays or the silicone mats that they use for Play-dough when they are playing with PlayFoam. I imagine it would be difficult to remove from carpet or furniture. PlayFoam appears to be little tiny Styrofoam balls held together by slightly less sticky glue that doesn't dry out. It holds its shape well. The kids have enjoyed making nests, cakes, snowmen, caves, and igloos with their animals and PlayFoam so far. I like that it comes in a container that it can be stored in when you aren't using it. Solid product, good for the preschool-first grade set. Excellent stocking-stuffer type gift. I'm glad I purchased it.

There was a video that kept surfacing on my facebook and I got sucked in and started watching it. The video was for Playfoam Pals and of course we watched it more than a dozen times. Super cute idea and love that you can built homes and other fun things for your pals that you reveal when you first open your package.Well, I just received them and they did not disappoint. I actually didn't even wait for my kids to get home from school, I just had to open it up and take a peek myself. I opened a pal and I got THE PENGUIN! He's super cute and I'm going to wait for my kids to get home before we name him. The only problem is... I want to open every single one and not be patient and wait for my kids!The playfoam is fantastic, a great sensory toy that will allow children (and obviously adults like me) the ability to play and also de-stress. It's an awesome texture and really fun to play with. Pop them in your diaper bag for a night out at a restaurant, bring them on a long plane ride, use them as stocking stuffers, or whatever you desire. I can for sure tell you that you won't be disappointed.

These are so much fun! You do not know what you will get in your ball until you open it. My kids just love anything surprising. The characters inside the balls are super cute. Their heads are interchangeable, allowing you to make fun creations. You have the ball to store your foam in and your new little friend if you choose. They are able to sit nicely on your shelf with their flat bottoms. These would make great stocking stuffers for little ones this Christmas season. We received 6 and out of the 6 we only got one set of doubles. My children would love to get them all. The Playfoam is great, nice and firm unlike many others off brands that fall apart and barely stick when playing with it.

It's just ok as a product. A bit overpriced for what you get. My kids enjoyed digging the little animals out of the playfoam and seeing what they got, but after that there wasn't much interest. The playfoam itself is a little boring. There's only so much you can do with the playfoam and then it got tossed to the side. Also the little balls fall off. It's not a terrible mess, but I found myself picking up little bits of balls after the kids were done playing with it. I don't think I'd purchase again and I wouldn't pay more than the like $5 I paid for a two pack.

This is incredible! I purchased this as an easy to clean, fun, sensory toy for my 1 year old toddler. It proved to be that AND MORE when her two older brothers (7 & 9) spent HOURS playing with this stuff. It does not dry, holds shape easily, and my kids enjoyed the thrill of uncovering all of the mystery animals inside. We did get several duplicate animals. In our 12 pack, we had 7 unique toys. But sooo much fun was had and will continue to be had with this stuff!

My daughter loves this stuff and the characters are cute!

Je suis vraiment déçue car pour le prix j'espérais avoir tous ou au moins une bonne variété des personnages mais il n'y en a que 6 différents qui se répètent dans les 12 boules.

Los compré para darles algo lindo a los compañeros de clase de mi pequeño y les encantó.

A mi sobrina le encantó, no sé si se emocionó más por la espuma o los personajes

Exactly as adverised
