This stuff is great fun. Unlike a material such as playdoh or similar such substances, this science putty is infinitely more interesting.
It exhibits the properties of both a solid and a liquid.
Left on its own on a flat surface, it will flatten down and form a circular ‘puddle’.
If you hold it in your hand and very gently squeeze it, it will slowly flow between your fingers – very theraputic!
If you roll it into a ball and throw it at a surface, it displays enormous bounce properties!
You can hit it with a hammer and bits shatter and break off it. – You can also try snapping it in two, and it does indeed sheer off like a solid.
Put it on top of an object and it will slowly ‘consume’ it, coalescing around the object and enveloping it. All good fun!

I’ve only been in possession of this ball for a day or two, but it’s so much fun. I find myself playing with it even when I’m idly watching TV! The physical properties of the putty is quite astounding – at times it acts like a sort of liquid and takes on the shape of whatever it’s placed on top of or forms a ‘pool of putty’ when left to its own devices in the metal tin. And at other times if you try to punch it or put some kinetic force on it, it acts as a solid.
I love watching it just slowly but surely change shape, and it’s really fun when I squeeze it in my hands and let my body heat ‘melt’ it to kind of stick to my hands. And the putty is incredibly bouncy, the smaller the ball, the more bouncy it is! Overall I’d recommend this, as an inquisitive little wonder or even as a stress reliever.

My 6 year old had a can of this for Christmas, great fun to play with and within minutes it wa stuck to a new white sweatshirt, the sofa, the carpet and the cat!
This stuff provides you, the adult, so much stress and grief to get rid of. It doesnt come out in the wash after 4 attempts at different temperatures. You cannot freeze the stuff off like chewing gum. you cannot pick it out of soft furnishings and the only way to get it out of the cat was to cut the patch of it out that the cat got on it from the sofa. Inside the tin lid it advises you not to get on clothes and soft furnishings, which in all fairness to kids is nigh impossible when you can tear the stuff and play with it as they do. The lid also advises specialised commercial cleaning of soft furnishings adding that you need to tell the cleaning company its a silicone. The patch cleaning of the carpets and sofa have so far cost £60 and it is still not removed completely.
The cat is not too impressed with its patch of missing fur either. Its a nightmare, and had I had have time to read the inside of the lid on xmas day before it got played with it would have been put out of reach. It now heading to landfill – a bargain stocking filler?…..I dont think so!!!!!

Good toy – but very messy in hot weather. My son keeps it in the freezer!

My son received a tin of Science Putty for his birthday and after the initial novelty of rolling it up into a bouncy ball had worn off, it soon became clear that this was Evil Putty! Before the day was out, it had melted all over his school jumper and his sister’s school dress and I can’t get it out of either! Don’t do it…………
