All of my girls loved it and played for hours. They were not allowed to stand up as it was very slippery, so they crawled around on their knees. There was some excess jelly stuck on them but I just sprayed them with the garden hose an it washed right off. After they were done, we added two dissolving packages due to the extra jelly mix and some salt.
We let the girls play around until the jelly stuff had turned to liquid. Then we simply poured it down the drain! Very satisfied, my kids had a fantastic time and I would definitely use it again.
I would just like to say to those people who think that every good review is from the company trying to make people buy the product, maybe they are just satisfied customers giving their input like me. Saying that is like me saying that every bad review is from a competitor trying to make people not buy the product. The thing is that I like to try not to do things that harm our planet… so I was wondering what the chemicals are that cause the water to solidify.
If I ever did by this stuff I would not use it in my house. Even in the commercial it looks like it would be a big mess considering the fact that my kids like to take the water out of the tub anyways. I have the same problem with it.
My daughter thought it was awesome on the shelf… hell, my partner and I thought it was awesome on the shelf, so we bought it.
You gotta leave room for error. My daughter enjoyed it for about 5 minutes until she realized it was sticking to her skin. Again, not disappointed with the product really, Isobelle is just kind of a strange kid.
I added BOTH packets of the step 2 and still no luck. I came here as I was looking for more info about it. Got to love the irony of that! Squishy Baff is the worst product ever. It says irritant free or something like that. I put my hand and arm down into the water to mix, and within seconds I was breaking out and itching.
The stuff sticks to your walls and is just a complete mess. I think this stuff would be amazing in a preschool sensory table or kiddie pool. The sounds like an economical science sensory experience in the classroom and when your done just throw away. I admit, the stuff looks fun and my boys loved it!! But I will never buy it again. My son who has sensitive skin, jumped right in. He was in it for about 10 minutes and an hour later I discovered that he had a bad allergic reaction and blister like rash all over his body.
We were able to control it but it was still scary. My other two boys were fine, but its not worth it to have it in the house if my sensitive skin son can not get near it. My 9-yr old daughter received this product as a gift for her birthday recently. We followed all directions and after using the product, my review is — POOR. The reason for this is false advertising; the product works great when you dump it in the bath and it gels.
I followed the instructions exactly and even waited longer than 10 minutes after putting the dissolver agent in and the stuff never changed back. So, now we wasted the ability for a second Squishy Baff which, by this point I had vetoed. I had no choice but to empty it down our drain and hope for the best. In addition, the product sticks to your child as other reviews have noted and you have to rinse with additional clean water to get it off.
My husband talked me into buying this for our son. Men, It took me forever to clean it out of the tub alone and then I had to put my son in the shower to get the rest of what was stuck on him off not to mention he had it in his hair and I had to sit and pick it out, This product is the worst thing they could try to sell for children, Sure they make it look good on TV but there is always a catch! This product is not worth the money! Thanks again everyone.
I agree!! MY friend and I spent like 4 hours in Squishy Baff but it was so hard to clean up!! I started by scooping it out with a strainer. Tried adding salt, but no go. Sucks, but my daughter loved it.
Big mess, but what the heck. After seeing the commercials, I had my concerns about Squishy Baff. My 9 and 10 year old daughters really wanted this product. So, instead of going straight out to buy it, I decided to read reviews first.
Believe me, I am glad I did! It is way to expensive. Not only that, our plumbing is old and prone to clogging. And, just one question: what does this stuff do to your grass if you use it in a kiddie pool? I am very concerned with all the parents who are not concerned with what this product is made of! Sure it is used in diapers, but not many little ones have a chance to possibly ingest their diapers!!
Also for those who say that we already use chemicals on a daily basis, such as make up, lotions etc. Little ones should not be wearing make up or lotions!! Products used for diaper rash etc. Give your precious little ones a chance at a healthy life! You could not be more specific! Can you tell me if those are safe? Anyone else notice that all the good reviews are exactly the same?!
It alternates between like 3 and describe it all the same. Hi everyone. My opinion is that Squishy Baff is really fun. I just let my five year old daughter play with it last night, it was her birthday so she got to celebrate with one of her presents before bed. Is it messy? Yes Is it slippery? No Did it clog my drain? Not at all Was it a ton of fun? Would I buy it again? I followed the directions and it worked quite well. Knowing this I filled the tub halfway and added both packets to the bath.
Within 5 minutes the consistency was quite thick and I needed to add a little more water to thin it out. I suppose it could but having a little girl I know that regular bubble bath can do the same thing. It all depends on how often you use it; everything in moderation. My 6 year old is playing in the tub for the 2nd time he is having a blast. If you also let the 2nd powder dissolve as your child is in the tub it has more time to work.
This product should be removed from the market. My five and three year old did not like the texture either. After playing in it for maybe five minutes they started to whine about the chunks of goop sticking to there skin and they love getting dirty but did not like this product and yes it clogged my drain also.
I tried the white stuff salt that came with it but it did nothing. I had to wash them with the shower head to finish bath time and after they got out I had to plunge the bath tub. Then it finally started to drain and I was left with chunks of what looks like the inside of diapers all of over my tub an floor.
It might be good for a outside kiddy pool and possibly older children but my boys did not like it. If anything salt is a good exfoliator for your skin. I think it would be tons of fun to use in a pool. Look what exactly it is made of, use it in a pool outside! This Squishy Baff is the worst stuff ever! Sure the kids enjoyed it but the packet that comes with it to dissolve the mess does not get the job done.
I used three extra packets of the crystals to dissolve the Squishy Baff and still no luck. I had to let it dry out vacuum it out of the back and put boiling water down the drain to get the rest. Would not suggest getting this. The second I saw the commercial, I knew I would never put my kids in the tub with it.
However, I knew it would be a product that would keep my 8 and 5 year old busy for a long time and they would LOVE it. So, common sense told me…. They will only put their HANDS in it, and if they make a mess, I can give them a water hose and they can spray off the driveway.
This is not rocket science people. AND…if it is too cold outside, fill the sink with a small amount. How can everyone be so quick to judge?
As for the clean up, I have three kids and one on the way so cleaning up is part of kids fun everyday of the week, no biggie. Let your kids enjoy being a kid and that should be enjoyment enough for you as a parent. I like Squishy Baff. I have a 5 year old son and he loves it.
He hates taking baths and he will play forever with this stuff. I add water slow to get the right consistency. I have used it my self a couple of times I saw a YouTube video of a company marketing it for adult use as a spa treatment so I figure it would be something nice to try. It is so relaxing…it is kind of expensive for what it is but to me its worth it for the enjoyment my son gets out of it.
I mean seriously why would you even buy this stuff!!! I just tried it for the first time and we loved it. My daughter is four, she found it hilarious and played for almost an hour. You have to follow the directions to a T; use lukewarm water, only about eight to ten gallons of water, and pour the powder in and mix it after the tub is filled. It takes about five minutes to get to the goopy consistency, but we had a blast.
As for ingestion, you probably have worse things to worry about. Your kids have ingested plenty of teflon thanks to non-stick cookware. Thanks for the reviews. We saw it on TV and it did look like fun. However, after reading the reviews here, esp. I bought Squishy Baff from Walmart. The price is ridiculous, but I thought my toddlers might have fun with it. It is a very cool idea, however it is the most slippery substance known to man. My kids love to stand in the bath and I would not let them because it was so slippery.
I stood in the tub with them and almost fell on my butt. It sticks to everything! It was an incredible mess! I ended up having to hose my kids off with the shower. I then let it sit for another hour and it still did not turn into water. I drained it anyways and had to scoop the remaining handfuls of goop out of the tub. Not a fun product to clean up. Mine really worked almost exactly as described. Do you have soft water that is slippery as it is? What a shame, my experience was simple and fun.
Did any of you that are more concerned with grammar or that remotely approve this product, even consider looking up the ingredients! So you are attempting to get your kids clean by bathing them in a color enhanced, plastic that you will have to rinse off them with clean water anyway and then risk your drain being clogged!
Your kids need to bath in water no real way around that people, so it may be tough but find an incentive to offer them if you need to other than something they should not expose to their bodies to, especially sensitive parts or possibly ingest!
Well I have a answer for that. It turns into water by another poduct that comes with the package! My four year old loved the squishy bath, and we had virtually no mess. Of course, the directions are very specific about the temperature of the water and the the amount of water to use. AS for the ingredients- I have no problem letting my daughter play in it. A quick spray with the shower took any remaining residue off of Paige no problem. With the rest of the things we put on our skins these days makeups, cream, lotion, depilatories, etc the last thing I am worried about is a silicone goop that washes right off with water.
But it does not turn back into water. I want my money back. I used it for my kids bath after they were done I put in the powder to turn it back stirred it for twenty minutes and it was still goop. Eventually I had to wash it down the drain and give the kids a real bath but I now have a clogged drain.
Not Cool. I think Megan must be a company rep…. It is a mess and causes more problems than what it is worth. Did not dissolve and then had a plumbing problem! My kid loved it but now I have a problem. This is something that the public should be told is good for a kids pool. Yeah, cause I am sure this Squishy Baff stuff is the cause of your plumbing problem, not the fact your home is a 50 year old rat trap with shoddy plumbing to start with…. Dr who the heck are you and why are you so aggressively defending this crap Squishy Baff.
It also seems like a legitimate problem for kids I think ill stick to the Johnson and Johnson and Mr. They showed toys from the toy fair and Squishy Baff was the last one shown. It looks easy as pie, they even showed the dissolving back powder and it really did lessen the gel into a more water based, drainable product.
Not a mother, but this stuff looks fun for kids. Id buy this for my neice, who will be 5 in July. Does not break down. I used the white powder and waited for a few hours and then even added a whole container of salt, but still nothing! I had to hand scoop the chunks into the garbage…worst thing ever! I have been wondering about this stuff…I have found some really good info in these reviews.
I have decided to take my chances and buy the stuff for my five and twelve year old, they love baths and anything that makes bath-time funner.
If our pipes get clogged.. I honestly don. It sounds like a fun product. I wish we had as neat things when I was a kid…oh well.. So my 4 year old and her friend just did Squishy Baff. Probably played for an hour in there. My only complaint is the mess. I have to clean up in the bathroom since they decided to get it all over the floor.
They play have a good time and I clean up the mess after. No different than any other toys. It was worth it to me. Please learn what punctuation is and how to use it before you try communicating again. Thank you, from those of us who still use grammar. If people are to lazy to clean up after their child they should have thought about it. Cleaning and working is a part of life.
I will buy it now, because of the review of a child who played in it…and not a little kid. A kid who can read, access the internet and post a believeable review! She can post what ever she wants however she wants so if I were you, I would get a life because its sad you have nothing better to do but make ten year olds feel bad bout not using a flippn period right! I think all of you people have too much time on your hands. This Squishy Baff stuff was fun for the kids, but the product is a bad.
It does not dissolve like it states and reading comments from Megan is like reading a brochure I am sure that she must work for the company. Product is extremely messy and would better to be used outside in a kiddy pool only.
A simple comment about enjoying the product would have been fine. You adults have turned this into a name calling game. You all need to grown up and the 10 year needs to learn some respect. My daughters rant and rave about how much they want this product but this will have to be the one thing I disappoint them by saying no too.
My daughter 4 had a real blast with it. My daughter played for an hour. No drain problems and not much mess. But maybe test it out in a kiddie pool first? I think maybe different minerals in water city, well, soft, hard might affect the productivity of the mixture. Its definitely not like it is on tv.. BUT u need 4 packs for one tub …. This product is horrible! My 4 yr old just had a squishy baff and not only did it clog my drain but I am now worried that my child might have accidentally swallowed some.
Should I be worried?? This Squishy Baff stuff is horrible and a complete waste of money. It never became squishy and it never dissolved. We were left with clumps to go down the drain. If it never became squishy, how did you get clumps?
And why would you be worried about your child swallowing it if nothing happened? I used squishy bath — my drain clogged because my tub drains just a little while it is full and I totally forgot about that. I ended up using a strainer and throwing about 2 gallons of it in the garbage and the rest of the water in the toilet.
I sent the kids up to the other bathroom to rinse off. I said many prayers and 1 for wisdom. After seeing all the posts above about salt helping to dissolve. I used the plunger to work some of it up out of the drain to make room to spoon some of the boiling salt water down in it. NO I will not be using Squishy bath any time soon!!!! I used squishy baff for my three year old daughter, and she was board with it.
It did turn into goo in less than 2 min and did dissolve for me, not completely tho. It looks like the stuff that is in baby diapers the jelly clear stuff and I worry if it will give little girls a urinary tract infection, I wont use it again, I did put her underwear on but it still got in there and was horrible to get out of hair.
Glad I read reviews before I purchased this stuff. My concerns about this stuff possibly causing drain problems were confirmed. The eyes? Squishy Baff did not dissolve for me. I am very unhappy with the product. I followed the instructions and I used additional salt and it still did not dissolve.
I had to scoop the goo out of the tub by hand. It filled over half of a 13 gallon trash bag. I do not recommend this product to be used in the bath. I just used it in the big tub and put both packs in at once all 5 of my kids ages got into it in bathing suits and had a blast, yes it was a little messy as they spilled it on the floor but they loved it.
To get rid of it I threw in 2 boxes of salt, it did not turn completely back to water but was close enough and went down the drain with no problems. It took the same amount of time to drain as normal bath would. The issue I had was rinsing off the kids, they had lumps of it in the hair, it took a while to shower it off them.
Got this for my kids and they had a blast. I read the reviews while they were playing and started to worry, but I gotta say, I had no problems at all. After adding the salt packets, the goo turned liquid within moments and went right down the drain. Maybe other folk just got bad batches? As for me, I will very likely purchase this product again. I have not tried this yet 9 but based in the reviews that people have gave it seems that everything works fine EXCEPT the dissolver.
We have a clogged drain and want to know if there is any household product that might further dissolve this stuff…yuck! I agree with everything on here! This is an absolute joke and should be taken off the market! The packet of dissolver should be twice the size of the packet that makes it squishy. My kids liked it, but I will never buy this again. They played for about 30 minutes and it took me 2 hours to get it out of my tub. I sure wish I had read the reviews before my 9 year old talked me into buying the pink Squishy Baff.
Save your money! We read the instructions and we filled the tub and then evenly sprinkled the Squishy Baff in the tub. The package states it takes minutes for it to fully form the goo. For us it took the full 10 minutes if not longer.
My daughter got bored waiting for it to turn into goo. My daughter was not impressed at all. She played for about 30 minutes in the tub running it through her fingers and over her legs and she was ready to dissolve it.
We poured in the dissolving packet and mixed it in just like we mixed in the Squishy Baff originally and waited. The package again states this will take minutes. She got out of the tub and got ready for bed and we returned to the bathroom to clean up the mess only to find that the goo was still not dissolved.
I used as directed and just spent hours draining gallons of goo out of the tub to avoid clogging the drain. This is not worth it at any price. I just used the squishy baff solution for my 5 year old. It was awesome to watch the water turn into goo within minutes! He played for over an hour. He absolutely loved it!!! When he was finished I simply poured the dissolve salt on it and waited about 10 minutes and it turned back to liquid form and I was able to drain the tub with no problem at all!
I will buy more and use this with my boys! I love it!! No reason to panic but I let it sit overnight and still did not turn it back into bath water so had to scoop it out by hand, was not fun. Thanks for the comments on Squishy Baff, I will not be buying! Do not purchase this stuff!
Bad idea! My son saw it on a commercial during cartoons and we went right out to Wal-Mart to buy it! While he had a great time playing it it, we on the other hand did not have so much fun trying to drain the tub. The 2nd packet did not turn it completely back to water we even used 2. Did not want the drains to clog or even the cesspool! As above description in bath time. Squishy Baff works when you fill the bath with water, add a special colored powder, and the bath water turns to a soupy, mushy, squishy bath.
