Captain Creative CC10031 Magic Nuudles, Medium Bag of Bright Nuudles - STEM Arts and Crafts Toy for Kids - Build, Decorate, Create - Biodegradable and Non-Toxic (300 Count)

Your browser does not support HTML5 video.  I bought these for my children (3yo and 6yo) because I was looking for some unique art materials to use in projects and was pleasantly surprised that they both loved them. They were very simple to use, just need a wet sponge on a plate! They built all sorts of things (3yo mostly "blobs", haha) like tiaras, flowers, rainbows, etc. Because so many came in the bag we did it several times before they ran out. I would say they are not reusable because once they get wet they kind of collapse and turn into a goo. It can get a little messy especially if the child's hands get wet, but it washes off easily. I would recommend these as a fun art material!

I bought this as a craft for my kids (7 and 4) after reading great review of them and I was very happy with this purchase. With my younger child especially it is hard to find a craft that she can do independently and actually keeps her engaged for any length of time. She really enjoys making animals or jewelry out of these. She also likes to use them to decorate the windows. I followed the advice of other people on here of handing her a damp paper towel and letting her use that to moisten the ends to stick them together.

Inexpensive, different activity. I keep my 2 year old (almost 3) twin grandkids and am always looking for new things because Grandma gets bored. They are still limited in what they create, but had fun with a family of snakes, and then they came up with the snakes playing kickball with one of the other pieces. I then showed them how the Nuudles could stick to the window, which was another layer of fun, and later they enjoyed helping to scrub the residue off the window (just needs water.) Held their attention a good while, and there are plenty of Nuudles to bring the activity out again another day. There are design ideas for Nuudles online that older kids could follow.

I gave these five stars even though the kiddo(age 4.5) I was using these with was not into them. But I've used them before with other kids and they're usually a hit. They are easy to use, no mess and pretty fun to.Update! We recently gave these another go and they went over really well!

These are the coolest things ever. I love to play with the kids, it's kind of like a pre school erector set. You can build all kinds of things. When you are ready for clean up, just toss and wipe down with a damp rag. They are made out of corn starch so they are safe for the environment. kids can learn to count, learn their colors, learn sequences, physics, etc.

I bought these as part of a present. They are so much fun to create with for young people. Once they are slightly damp they stick together. You can build with them.

I really liked the thought of these. But was disappointed as they get dye on your hands, they are sticky and then they shrink. Had 3 different people try them and all disliked.

Got these for my 3 year old nephew- and absolute hit! Will definitely get more for a birthday party coming up. Fun for the kids to create and no mess to clean up!

These Nuudles are huge the package was a lot larger than what I was expecting. The kids still had fun creating.

Best creative idea with no mess! My grandchildren loved it.
