Instruction booklet
With the So Bomb DIY Bath Bomb Factory we can mix and mould our own fizzy creations for bath time magic and Grace really couldn’t wait to get started as she absolutely loves bath bombs.
We mixed the brightly coloured powder with the glittery powder in the mixing station, and then added the decorative sprinkles to the bottom of the mould.
Now we poured the powder mix into the mould and press down to make a bath bomb unique to you. You can even hide one of the cute characters inside for a playful surprise at bath time.
So Bomb’s special bath bomb formula is quicker and easy. Every ingredient is already measured out, so you can enjoy fizzy fun with the perfect ratio within 10 minutes.
Grace was absolutely thrilled to bits at how her bath bombs turned out, and even commented on how easy it was to put together. When she turned it around and saw the sparkles that she had added she was so delighted and instantly asked for a bath.
Relax in a warm tub, coloured and scented especially for you. The So Bomb DIY Bath Bomb Factory has enough ingredients to make 6 bath bombs, each one 6cm in diameter.
So unique and perfect for sleepover fun or a special treat night.
Our Thoughts
We are so happy with the So Bomb DIY Bath Bomb Facotry and have had super fun creating a variety of coloured bath bombs, and also mixing the colours to give a streak effect. The bath bombs fizz great in the bath and actually last quite a while with a continuous fizz.
You can purchase So Bomb DIY Bath Bomb Facotry from the Amazon website and all good toy shops
So DIY Magic – Magic Terrarium
With this So Magic DIY Tree you can make your own terrarium and watch your tree grow and bloom!
Contents:-
1 terrarium,
1 bag of growing powder,
2 bags of coloured sand,
6 coloured pebbles,
2 glitter pebbles,
2 figurines,
1 magic crystal tree,
Instructions
Decorate with coloured sand and stones and add two collectable characters the So Magic Tropical Terrarium Kit is a great way to introduce children to crystal growing and a great introduction to the scientific principals behind how crystals grow in a fun and magical way.
All we needed to do to grow our crystal tree is sprinkle the growing powder on the branches, add water and waited as our tree grew overnight.
Grace loved to decorate her terrarium with the coloured stones and sand making sure that it was just right, then just add the figurines and replaced protective lid.
We waited over night, and by the next morning we had results!
The results worked really well, but of course I never had my camera to hand before Grace decided to explore and touch the crystals allowing a few to fall from the tree.
Our Thoughts
We have also really enjoyed this set, I think its great to get kids involved in science in a fun way. This is an amazing way to grow crystals and keep as it is secured in its own dome which can then then be displayed where you like and Grace really loves the SO DIY Magic Tree.
You will find SO DIY Magic Terrarium on the Amazon website and all good toy shops
So Slime DIY Colour Change Slime Shakers
If your children love slime then the So Slime DIY Color Change Slime Shakers are the perfect gift for them. This set is also colour changing!
Grace, I have to say is very slime mad and just loves the mess about it. I know it’s not everyone’s cup of tea, but luckily she can play on the table and we have tile floors so nothing that can’t be cleaned.
The pack comes with 3 slimes ready to be opened and mixed.
Each shaker you open has a collectable figure, slime powder and glitter.
The slime is so easy to make, just mix the So Slime powder, glitter/confetti into the mixer, then just add required amount of water and shake, await about 10 minutes and your slime is done, it’s that easy!
The slime does not include any glues or resins of any kind to keep children far away from harmful substances, instead it is 100% water based.
Play with your slime and watch it change colour in the palms of your hands! You can even add a cute collectable character to make the magic even more fun!
What colour is your slime going to be?
You can purchase So Slime DIY Color Change Slime from the Amazon Website and all good toys shops
