Metallic Colors
Bronze is a lustrous metallic color with endless marbleization and sparkle. The most popular metallic color. The Best Stress Reliever you will ever find! Brilliant Gold sparkles and shimmers in the light. This fantastic color really catches your eye. Gunmetal Graphite has a dark sheen that makes this putty seem monochrome and emotionless at first glance. A closer view reveals a rainbow of multi-color sparkling which blends to create a stunning gunmetal grey. Shiny Silver with its impressive metallic sheen is a bright and flashy putty with marbleization.
When one of our children was a preschooler, we received the best advice a parent of a kinesthetic child could receive: Let her wiggle. And wiggle she did. I don't think she sat for schoolwork for many years. But sometimes pirouettes and somersaults can be a distraction to other children, especially if you are dealing with a mixed bag of modalities. The visual students in particular will go bonkers trying to be attentive in the presence of a human pogo stick. However the kinesthetic child can't be attentive without movement. A workable compromise is a handheld fidget of some sort. Since last spring, we have investigated a number of fidgets; some were silly, some were creepy, and most were flimsy. I broke three in one week and I am not even kinesthetic! So when our shipment of Thinking Putty arrived, I was eager to see how it fared. The results were outstanding.
Bounce, stretch, tear, drip, snap, even shatter Thinking Putty
Thinking Putty is Silly Putty but enhanced with knock-your-socks-off colors that shift or morph completely as you squeeze. There are even eye-popping glow-in-the-dark versions that will inspire all sorts of electrifying experiments. All versions of the non-toxic, non-gooey Thinking Putty will bounce, stretch, tear, drip, snap, even shatter. Silicone-based, they will never dry out. The Heat Sensitive versions will change colors with the warmth of your hands while the Color Shifting putties will maintain their individual colors no matter how many times they are kneaded. And the Glow-in-the-Dark versions? Well, that's what they do, but for varying lengths of time, depending on the color.
Stress-relieving, hand exercising Thinking Putty
Thinking Putty is an impressive adult-sized handful of high quality moldable putty. Not just for wiggly children, Thinking Putty is also a stress-relieving, soothing slab of super-smooth elastic putty for tense office workers and impatient computer geeks. It also can be used as a hand exercise for guitar players or therapy for arthritic hands. Each tin arrives with an adult-sized one-fifth of a pound of Thinking Putty and a label that says Crazy Aaron's Thinking Putty. They offered to put our names on the label instead, at nearly twice the price, but we decided that we would let Aaron be the crazy one! We offer twelve mesmerizing versions of thinking putty. Each tin contains enough putty for a couple of children to use at the same time.
