Pros & Cons
Pros
The idea with the phone is that it never dries out. I find this to be easier to work with then play-doh and does it make as much of a mess. I like that they included a little dot area so that it makes it easier to grab the molded foam out.
This sandcastle with floam is super cute! The sandcastle has a handle for carrying and molds for using with the floam. Everything fits in the package which is a huge plus.

The kids enjoy the set. I have a 4 year old that loves anything stretchy, slimy, doughy, or sandy. My 4 yearold is especially interested in textures and shapes.

Cons

Highlights
Quality
It sticks to itself very well, which makes it great for molding just about anything.
I love so much that this stuff never dries out.
I have had this foam for over a year now and the foam has lost it's sticky.
You make a shape and it falls apart very easy.
Price
For the value of money it was great while it lasted, but don't expect it too last forever.
Shipping
I bought this online as a gift for my 5 year old great nephew’s birthday & had it sent directly to him.
Packaging/appearance
Bought this for the convenience of the box.
I packed some scoopers and playdough scissors for him to play with too.
Competitiveness
That makes it so much better than any other brand, as you have to keep buying more of those.
