MindWareScience Academy: Squishy Ball Lab, Kids Make 6 Squishy Stress Balls!

This was a bday gift for my grandson's 9th bday. When I ordered it I was worried it wasn't going to make it to him on time because he lives in ad different state. Not only did he love it, but it arrived ON HIS BIRTHDAY which was 3 days earlier than they had said to expect it! I was VERY pleased!!! Thank you!

The only kit I found like this. My 8 yr old loved it! All ingredients are pre measured so she did it mostly on her own. Only downside is after about an hr the balloons break.

I’m not so sure my granddaughter did. It looked like work rather than just therapy putty she loves to manipulate.

I don’t have a picture because the kids just ripped tithe kit open and wanted to begin. Honestly to make the experience better I would advise parents open and read the directions in the kit before giving to children. You’ll sound smarter then a fifth grader and be prepared to answer any questions even when your hands get messy.

Daughter was excited to make the squishy balls. Ended up being really hard to “pour” some of the mixtures into the balloons - even with the funnel. They were too sticky and thick. Ended up being more frustrating than fun. Would also have been nice if the kit came with talking points on the actual science - this is a stem activity so would have been nice to talk through how the ingredients react with the kids.
