MindWare Science Academy Deluxe Squishy Ball Lab - Includes All Ingredients to Make 10 Squishy Balls - Ages 8 and Up

My daughter loves squishies and we tried two other kits, as well as slime kits, which were terrible— they were not durable, the squishy was not to be used for longer than ten days and was essentially a water balloon. When I saw balloons with this kit I was concerned. However, my daughter and I both like this kit. She received it for her 8th birthday and can create them with minimal assistance from me. The directions are good, minimal mess (except for glitter, as always) and the balloons are in great shape after two weeks without any leaks. The toughest part is tying the balloon.We both like that she has options to create them her own way, a variety of “fillings” (slime, water beads, etc) and extras (gems, glitter, coloring). I would buy this again (and most likely will).

I got this set to do with my kids as a fun project to help break up the routine of being home and "bored" all the time. We had fun with these. The instructions were easy to follow, and the goop was fun to make. The goop you make to put inside the balloons ends up having the consistency of slime, and getting it through the funnel into the balloon wasn't as easy as expected. Our tip, take small pieces a time and it goes easier and more quickly. Overall this was a fun activity and one we would have fun doing again.

The ballons were a little fragile, but my daughter still had fun with it.

I was disappointed when I found out that the squishy balls were just balloons. Also one of the balloons popped what I was filling it up. But you fill the balloons with slime. And l LOVE slime! (If you hate slime then I do not recommend at all!) l loved creating the slime! I also loved the pretty colors to dye the slime! Definitely a let down for the squishy ball, but the slime is amazing!! I recommend if you love slime!

My niece and nephews had a ball with this! They are ages 4, 6 and 8. They loved it. Highly highly recommend!

i have a kid obsessed with slime and orbees. this set was a huge hit! we made all 10 squishy balls at once. not hard to do but will take a grown up to put the slime in the balloons and tie them off. lots of fun mix ins with glitter, and colorings. water beads / orbees included too!

The product came quicker than i thought which was great. There were some issues. 1/2 of the balloons broke while trying to put them on the funnel. Once you mixed the activator in it was hard to get the ingredients into the balloon. I found using my finger to push it in was best. I was nervous to let the kids play with them anywhere except a place that could easily be cleaned because I was afraid of the balloons breaking. The kids loved putting the ingredients together and making their own mixes
