Unleash creativity, fine motor skill‑work, and sensory fun in one vibrant package. The Sparkly Squish & Share Glow‑in‑the‑Dark Playfoam 8‑Pack introduces children to hands‑on learning through sculpting, shaping, and observing sensory materials that respond in the dark. Each pod encourages kids to explore shapes, letters, and numbers while building coordination, hand‑eye control, and self‑expression — all without the mess or stress of traditional clay.


Additional Information:
Items may vary based on availability. Crates contain products not manufactured by the seller and may include small parts. Not suitable for children under 3 years. Contents are not for consumption. Adult supervisor for scissors is required.

What's Included in the Pack:

  • 8 pods of non‑toxic, glow‑in‑the‑dark Playfoam in assorted bright colors — the tactile compound never dries out and stays contained for repeated use.
  • Built‑in opportunity to practice letter formation, number tracing, and shape creation — using Playfoam to press, form, and reshape helps reinforce early literacy and numeracy concepts.
  • Bonus sensory play feature: the foam’s glow‑in‑the‑dark property adds a playful dimension to learning, supporting observation, cause‑and‑effect thinking, and imaginative exploration.

Recommended Age: Children ages 3 and up who are ready for screen‑free creative play and sensory‑rich experiences.

  • Early learners in homeschool or classroom settings who benefit from tactile learning, fine motor development, and open‑ended exploration.
  • Parents, educators, or therapists looking for a reusable, low‑mess activity that blends art, literacy, and sensory engagement.
  • Kids who like to shape, sculpt, experiment, and create — especially those who will love squishing something, flipping off the lights, and watching it glow.
