Floam is an odd substance which brings a smile to kids faces all around. It is an odd sort of sticky modeling compound with little foam-ish balls in it which doesn’t dry out like other modeling compounds. The interesting part about Floam is its ability to add textures and bright colors to everyday objects like a brightly colored underwater castle with bubbles or an alien head with bumpy skin. Also it comes off relatively easily for next time. The colors are so bright and fun the possibilities are endless. Check out the Nickelodeon Floam Factory. This nifty set comes with rollers, mashers and shapers to help make all kinds of ‘blocks’, petals, shapes and designs for just about anything you may want to build. From bugs to flowers, to crowns, even castles and houses- It’s all here.

Floam is pretty easy to clean up too, just roll around a bigger piece to grab all its little cousins or just mash it up in a similar way you would do with play doh, stomping about on smaller pieces until you have them all. Right now Little Man is on a cutting craft phase and is thoroughly enjoying anything he can cut up and put back together again. Floam is perfect for this. It is easy to chop it up with safety scissors, then mold the pieces together into a new work of art.
