Skwooshi Activity Set
A few months ago, little man played with Skwooshi for the very first time when we visited the UKMumsTv stand at the Mums Show Live 2013. I was pleased to see Skwooshi as one of the favourite toys in the Creative range at the Mums Choice Awards at the Christmas in July 2013.
Skwooshi is a compound unlike anything else we’ve played with before. It goes from hard to soft as soon as you start playing with it, it is similar to play-doh, however it doesn’t dry out and it is mess free. You can play with skwooshi on any surface as it doesn’t stick or stain fabrics or carpets.
We were sent Skwooshi Activity Set (RRP £12.99) and it was a success with the whole family, even mummy and daddy got involved in trying it out. The activity set is suitable for children aged 3 years old and above, it is wheat and gluten free. It comes with everything you need to start playing with Skwooshi: 3 compound in different colours, yellow, red and purple, 3 storage containers, 4 activity tools, 4 cookie cutters and 1 cutting tool.
Little man had a lot of fun playing with Skwooshi, creating shapes and building blocks. He loves the fact that the texture and consistency change as you start playing with it. Skwooshi goes from hard to crushable and skwooshable as soon as you pull it apart, it suddenly becomes very elastic, then grainy.
We had hours of fun playing with Skwooshi and it has now become one of little man’s favourite toys. Since it doesn’t stick to anything else but itself, I don’t mind him playing with Skwooshi as it is mess free, and I know I won’t be finding pieces of it stuck around the house, like other similar products.
I really liked the fact it comes with storage boxes, so as soon as you have finished playing with Skwooshi, you can put it away safely until next time. You can create endless shapes and designs with it, encouraging creativity and imagination.
I must say I really enjoy playing with Skwooshi too as it is soft and mouldable, and I can’t stop pulling it apart and seeing it break into pieces – I could do that all day long and so could little man, I might have to get my own Skwooshi Activity Set!
