One of the upsides of the long confinement has been that the kids have had lots of time to rediscover the numerous toys, books and craft kits that they have lying around in their rooms. They've been looking back at things that they used to love and that they had stopped playing with and rediscovering things that used to be big crazes that have gone out of fashion. One such past obsession was slime - you may remember they even had a go at trying different recipes for making edible slime - so Pierre was very happy to receive a So Slime DIY Slimelicious Sweet Shop to review.
We love the packaging. As well as looking cool and successfully resembling a sweet shop, the little windows allow you to see what's inside the box. Here it is unpacked - you get a box of six scented slime powders, two mini shakers (that look like a pot of Nutella and an ice cream), 3 bags of slime decorations and two mystery charms.
Here you can see the two charms that we got - a doughnut and an ice cream sundae - and the different colours (and scents) of slime powder.
Making the slime couldn't be simpler. You just add water to the slime powder, mix it up and decorate it with whichever of the slime decorations you want.
Give it a good shake and within minutes, you'll have a thick, gooey, fragrant slime to get your mitts into !
The kids had great fun creating and playing with their slime. The back of the box shows you the different charms and shakers that can be collected. The slime can be displayed in the shop packaging and younger children may enjoy acting out being a shopkeeper, creating personalised slimes as ordered by their friends.
The Slimelicious Sweet Shop has an RRP of £7.99 and you can also buy a Slimelicious Soda Shop (£7.99) and Slimelicious Ice Cream Shop (£9.99). If your kids want a cheaper toy to buy with their pocket money, you may prefer the Blindpacks, which retail for £2.79 and contain one mini scented slime with one decoration, one charm and a bespoke shaker. Watch out for the 6 ultra-rare and valuable pots !
