Review: No mess!! - The kids love it and so do I. No mess. So easy clean up. I keep it in ziplock bags and have had no problems.
Review: Awesome therapy toy - This is so similar to the floam I used to play with as a child, and it sure brings back memories. I work with kids who have autism, and this a great alternative to Playdoh. There are so many ways I can use this as part of their therapy. Although the Playfoam feels sticky, no residue is left on your hands. I love the bright colors - orange, blue, green, purple, sparkle green, sparkle yellow, sparkle pink, and sparkle orange. I wish there were more pieces of glitter throughout the sparkle foams. I will have to check back in with you to determine whether or not it dries out. I am going to try to use this at the table only, so that hair, dirt, and dust, don’t get stuck to it. The Playfoam has a slight styrofoam smell, but it doesn’t bother me. It would be neat if they came out with some scented Playfoam. It would be nice if the Playfoam combo pack came with a container, besides the plastic and cardboard packaging, to keep the foam in. Overall though, I think this is a wonderful toy and a decent value for the price. Disclaimer - Brilliant Minds is reimbursing me for the money I paid to try this product out.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can you play with this in the bathtub??  Waterproof?**
A: No, it will stain your tub probably and ruin the surface by leaving a sticky residue behind that is actually impossible to remove. I have tried everything to remove it from my kid's high chair tray.

**Q: Does this have any nuts or eggs in the ingredients?**
A: No it does not.

**Q: How can you clean residue/stain left on my sons high chair tray??**
A: Use orange essential oil. Takes it right off. And it's non-toxic since its on his high chair.

**Q: Is this a good alternative for putty/slime?**
A: This is a great product but it is not slime or putty my child was not happy when she got this but then ended up loving it so i think that it is better than slime but im not exactly sure

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Entertaining Alternative for Modeling Dough
*by M***S on December 22, 2017*

Purchased to entertain a house full of kids during the holidays. They all loved it and found different ways to play with the foam. It cleaned up easily and didn't leave residue anywhere. Two cons however - if it falls onto the carpet or otherwise in an area with debris - fuzzies, fibers, or other dirt will get mixed into it (two of the kids made balls and played catch - the ball rolled under the couch and collected fibers from the carpet). Also - I would have preferred the separate colors to have lids (even if a one-time peel back foil) or separate packaging - there was no way to take one of the middle colors off of the package without opening the rest in the row (unless you cut the packaging). Regardless of these pet peeves - the product kept the kids entertained for hours and was fun to play with. I would certainly look for the product again for a gift.
