Educational Insights Pluffle Mini 8-Pack

Not quite sure how I feel about Pluffle yet. I really like it but my mind can't seem to wrap my head around it fully. It's so different than anything we've seen but so so neat. It can be pretty messy though. My 5 year old daughter absolutely LOVES it. We ended up buying a large plastic bin and letting her go nuts with it. Having a bin is helpful! Again, it can be a messy activity but honestly with how much play my daughter as gotten out of it, its worth it! I will say, its very easy to clean up, especially compared to slime and playdoh! Doesn't stick to any surface and can be scooped or vacuumed up with ease. Even if you miss a piece, the contents are soft so stepping on any extra won't feel like stepping on a sharp rock! I also appreciate that the colors don't mix and create that lovely brown gray black green mush that slimes and playdohs do when combined. I found myself playing with this stuff and I couldn't stop. It's really interesting. We will probably be buying more! Really cool product and I'm glad we bought it.

I received Pluffle for my kids’ sensory bin and it’s been a huge hit in our house. The texture is super soft, fluffy, and oddly satisfying to squish. My kids love scooping, pouring, and molding it, and it keeps them busy much longer than most toys. Compared to regular sand, it’s WAY less messy and much easier to clean up since it mostly sticks to itself. We use it on a tray and it stays contained pretty well. It’s great for quiet time, calming play, and working on fine motor skills. I would recommend supervising younger kids, but overall this has been one of our best sensory purchases. Highly recommend for parents, teachers, or therapists looking for a fun sensory material!

I first discovered this on TikTok Shop and thought it would make a fun and unique sensory filler for my classroom bin. However, it was way overpriced there, so I found a better deal—two boxes of eight for around $30. I used it to create a smaller sensory bin, and I found that four jars were plenty for a compact setup. The colors mix beautifully, and the kids are absolutely fascinated by how the pluffle moves on its own with just a little push—that was their favorite part! It’s not like playdough, but you can mold it into shapes, and it stays that way until you touch it again, then it starts shifting on its own, which is so fun to watch. The only downside is that it can stick to you if you’re not careful, but it’s super easy to clean up and never dries out. My students could play with this for as long as I let them without getting bored. Just add a few small toys, and their imagination takes over! If they release more colors, I’ll definitely be buying them. Highly recommend!

This is fun! My kids love this stuff in their sensory bins. It really does seem... alive. Easy to vacuum up and doesn't stain or make much of a mess!

This is a fun sensory toy. It doesn’t really have a smell and it cleans up really easy with a vacuum. It doesn’t stick in carpet it to clothing. My 3 year old loves playing in it, I enjoy the feeling too. It doesn’t leave your hands a little glittery and I’d actually prefer it without the glitter but it doesn’t stop us from using it. It’s nice that it never dries out like playdoh and is less messy than kinetic sand.

I requested this for my daughter for Christmas as a slime/kinetic sand/play-doh alternative based on the idea that it was less messy. I wouldn't say it's less messy by a long shot, but it is much easier to clean up than the others since you can just vacuum it up because it's "dry". It was super fun to play with and it's fun to watch is move on its own - even I ended up sitting with them for quite a while and squishing it around. Ideal for parents who struggle to play with their kids because you can just enjoy the sensory experience yourself while engaging with the kiddos. We liked it so much that I bought two more sets to make a large sensory bin - just added some play utensils, little figures, and some micro animals. As far as cleanup, I don't have the most powerful vacuum and our carper is on the shaggier side, so it did take a few passes, but I would let my kiddos play with this over anything "wet" every time. It entertained them through an entire weekend of being snowed in, and they are still playing with it after. Definite win.

Cool, fluffy, definitely will keep your little ones busy and yourself.

It’s okay. Honestly makes just as much of a mess as playdoh, kinetic sand, etc. I have my kids plates - bowls - bins to play with it in and it still ended up everywhere. They are 9 & 6, cause it’s foam it sticks to stuff like sand. So I’d pick whatever form of things your kid likes to play with the most. You’ll be cleaning up after no matter what. It is cool, but got it for them for Christmas thinking it would be less messy - it’s not. 😂

This stuff is AMAZING. My kids LOVE it and it keeps them entertained for so long. It isn’t too messy and is actually really awesome and fun to touch I like playing with it too lol it’s really cool how you can clump it together but then it falls apart like kinetic sand but it’s not sand, the colours are very vibrant too which is fun. I definitely recommend this for sensory activities and for sensory seekers. Only thing is - don’t try to sweep it up if it gets on the floor because it just sticks to the broom, I pick up as much as I can by hand then sweep or vacuum the little bit that’s left

The material is actually satisfying to the touch. The girls had so much fun playing with it and molding it too. It smells like a rubber tire but so much fun.

You get a lot of product, its enough to fill a small bin. It is easier to clean up than kinetic sand and doesnt stick to clothes like kinetic sand. Those 2 things makes makes it worth it to spend a little extra on a sensory bin.

This stuff is awesome! And great deal. Containers were actually bigger then expected

I purchased this to use in my grandson's sensory bin. I've used sand before but inside the house, Kinetic sand can become quite slippery if dropped on the floor. I thought this would be a good substitute. It was great to hide things in or to use shovels or spoons. Using it to make sand castles doesn't work. The product doesn't come out of the mold unless you use something to pull it out. My grandson still had fun running his cars and trucks through it. Easy clean up if dropped on the floor. Doesn't dry out and color doesn't fade. Used 3 bottles to fill the bin enough to hide things under.
