Floam is Fun!

My friend, Becca, has been telling me about floam for a while, and we finally tried it! I planned on making homemade floam eventually, but when I saw it in the dollar store, I decided to go ahead and buy it. It's fun and a nice change from playdoh (although we still prefer playdoh). It's a bit more firm than playdoh, and it's somewhat difficult for O to roll flat, but she still has fun with it :)

    My mom gave the boys floam for Christmas last year and they LOVE it. It gets used almost as much as playdoh around our house.

    I am impressed that you found it at the dollar store! That is awesome! The boys are getting some for Christmas that I found on clearance at Marshalls. :)
    I'm so glad they liked it! My thoughts are that it will be easier to care for on the airplane than playdough.

    I agree, Becca, that it will be easier on the airplane. Playdoh crumbles so easily and little bits get everywhere, so you won't have to worry about that. Make sure it doesn't get on their clothes. It's more difficult to get off than playdoh :) When do you leave for G?

    I will have to check out the dollar store for Floam... the last time we had it in the classroom it had melted or something and was overly sticky, everyone had it in their hair, on their shoes, and on every classroom surface. another fun messy day at preschool
