Crayola Silly Putty Nugget’s Mixin’ Lab Merges Fun and Science

— December 7, 2021 — Life-Stages
With ‘Crayola Silly Putty Nugget’s Mixin’ Lab,’ kids can create their own silly putty. Kids can experiment with Nugget the chicken to create different putties with various colors, textures, and consistencies. The kit contains enough ingredients to make six putties that can be stored in egg-shaped containers. The putties can be stretchy, snappy, and bouncy, and the glitter, beads, and sand change the texture to make it more crunchy, bumpy, and shiny.

According to the Crayola website, the kits “includes white base Silly Putty (60 g), red, yellow and blue Silly Putty (10.6 g each), bag of silly beads, bag of glitter, bag of sand, 6 clear Silly Putty eggs and mixing guide.”

Silly Putty Nugget’s Mixin’ Lab is available on the Amazon website and at select retailers.
