Magic Puffy Pens and Creatibles Air Dry Clay Kit Review
Share!
Editor's Review
Inspire creativity with two new arts and crafts toys from Ooly. Each is sold separately.
Magic Puffy Pens, for ages 3 and up, come in bright and colorful neon colors. There are six pens in the set. Kids can draw in 3-D because when you apply high heat directly over the artwork with a hair dryer, the ink puffs up. Just squeeze the pen and apply ink evenly. Then wait until the ink is dry to apply heat. Adult supervision is required.
The Creatibles Air Dry Clay Kit is a mini kit for ages 6 and up that comes with four colors of air dry clay in a reusable tub. That’s enough to make two pet BFFs: an orange kitten and a blue dog. Follow the instructions to make the pets as shown on the box, or get creative and make whatever you’d like. Allow your creations to dry overnight, and then add paint or markers. Adult supervision is advised, as is covering your work surface.

Should I get it?
Kids will like the things they can create with these pens and clay. It doesn’t take long for the pen ink to puff up like popcorn with the hair dryer, and this gives kids’ creations a fun and colorful 3-D look. The air dry clay is easy to work with, and kids can play with the finished pets or keep them out on display.
