Elmer's Squishies Mini DIY Activity Kit – Create 4 Mystery Squishy Characters in 60 Minutes, for Ages 6+
This Elmer's Squishies Mini DIY Activity Kit lets children mix, pour, and pop out four miniature squishy characters in about 60 minutes. Designed for ages six and up, it includes six mystery molds, secret solution, glue pens, and mixing tools to create surprise characters that are smaller than original Squishies. The nontoxic formula makes it a safe sensory play activity for kids who enjoy fidget toys.
What's Inside the Kit
- 6 Mini Mystery Molds (each creates a surprise character)
- 2 Sets of Secret Solution A & B
- 2 Mixing Cups
- 2 Stir Sticks
- 2 Glue Pens
Everything you need to make four mini squishies is included. Each mold produces a random character from a pool of over 80 possibilities, including 12 rare ones.
How to Create Your Squishies
Mix the Secret Solution components in the provided cup, pour into a Mystery Mold, and wait 60 minutes. Pop out your new squishy character and start squishing. The process is simple enough for children to follow with minimal adult supervision.
Why Mini Squishies Are Great for Sensory Play
These mini squishies are about a fraction of the size of original Elmer's Squishies, making them perfect for little hands. They provide satisfying tactile feedback—squish, stretch, and scrunch—which can help with stress relief and focus. The surprise element adds excitement to the creative process.
Can You Customize Your Squishy Characters?
Yes. While the kit includes everything for the basic characters, you can experiment with Elmer's pourable glues (sold separately) to change colors or add effects like glitter or color-shifting. The Mystery Molds can also be reused with Secret Solution refill packs (sold separately) to create more characters.
