Doctor Squish: Squishy Maker, New Shiny Glitter Station Maker, Decorate with Confetti, Sparkles & Colored Ink, Variety of Sizes, Just Add Water to Make Your Own Slime, For Ages 8 & up

My daughter is into squishes right now! She was so excited to get this! Easy to use and clear instructions! We will be buying the refills and using more!

When I first opened the box I was worried there would be a lot to put together or difficult directions. I was pleasantly surprised that there was nothing to put together, and the directions were super easy! Just put the balloon in and pump it up. I did lose suction for some reason, maybe it wasn't tight enough in there, so the water did overflow, but I just pumped it back up and it was fine. The squishy itself is super satisfying, the balloon doesn't feel like it will burst easily and my daughter absolutely loves it! Kudos to Doctor Squish!The only thing I would change is the little plastic clasps that keeps the squishy closed, please give those to us already open. They are difficult to pry open.

Dr Squish advertises to children via her plethora of videos on kids YouTube. My kid asked Santa for her branded squishy maker. Santa delivered. We watched many videos to prepare for this exciting adventure. Being that he’s five, I assisted in every way and followed every direction. We even watched the trouble shooting videos. This is an absolute garbage, mess making, promise breaking toy. We were successful in making our first squishy using Kinetic sand and a bit of water. This one is actual almost two weeks old and still holding. The others were not successful and now I will be cleaning orbies from tiny crevices in my kitchen for years to come.Problems…. Clasps do not hold. When you squish and pressure builds up behind the clasp they can burst open.When twisting to get ready to clasp the seal breaks on the cap and insides explode everywhere.Squishy skin can be pulled through clasp as the rounded top deteriorates with time and squishes.Squishy skin has pin prick sized holes and leak.My son is devastated. I told him I’d write to Santa, to see what can be done, because you can’t even buy the skins and clasps to keep trying. I don’t really mind the mess. I’m a messy girl, but the look on my kids face when I told him we have nothing left to experiment with, broke my mama heart. So disappointed.

We followed all instructions but accident always happens. The plastic got torn so all the gel inside exploded out and created a whole mess. That’s why you need to be careful and of course kids can’t play this alone by themselves cuz it requires a lot of attention. The balloon is good for a few days then collapsed. We did have fun tho.

My son became obsessed with Doctor Squish on YouTube kids! He watches her videos on repeat and knows them word for word. So I was excited to buy him his own squishy maker. Let me tell you at 4 the kid is a pro! We opened and immediately made our first squishy! Of course with everything you have to practice. But for everyone that is complaining in the reviews they are obviously not researching or following directions correctly! We have made all of these now and had no issues. So to all the complaints, go watch some videos and get familiar. Great product. It’s also not made for children to do completely by themselves soooo supervise your kids and help them! It’s a touch messy sometimes but isn’t that what kids are supposed to do?! I would buy again for sure!

Great concept. My kids loved playing with it, but I was glad we put their completed squishies in a plastic tub. All but two of their squishies got holes in them without even being played with. The vacuum suction on the machine did not hold well so we had to have one child pump while the other filled. I would not buy it again. I expected higher quality since Dr Squish often speaks on the quality of store bought squishies.

The Doctor Squish Squishy Maker is a fun and creative toy for kids 8 and up! The shiny glitter station lets you decorate with confetti, sparkles, and colored ink to make unique squishies. It’s easy to use—just add water and customize to your heart’s content. A great way to spark imagination and create slime in a variety of sizes!

The media could not be loaded. This is such a fun toy! It doesn’t come with very good glitter or shapes or additives but we used our own of that stuff and these are so pretty and fun. Some things to know ahead of time: open the clips up before you actually make a squishy, when adding things to your balloon you have to periodically blow the balloon up more because it starts to lose its air when taking a while to add various glitters and shapes, this would be a difficult thing for a kid to do really an adult needs to be the one attaching the balloon and then adding the water and powder and then removing the balloon so that it doesn’t make a huge mess. My five year old was in charge of picking out and adding all the glitters and shapes and she did some pumping of the air but otherwise I did the rest to avoid a huge mess. We have already ordered a refill pack so that we never run out of the stuff we need to make more. As long as an adult is in charge it’s not overly messy. Overall this is so fun and I would definitely purchase it again!
