Crazy Aaron'sThinking Putty® - Tidal Wave - Super Magnetic Sensory Putty for Kids and Grown ups in a 4" Tin - Creative and Endless Fun, Stress Relief Therapy Toys, Never Dries Out - Made in USA

got this as a gift for my friend and she loved it. no problems with shipping or anything and it came in great condition.

I've always found Crazy Aarons putties to be great. Their magnetic putty has enough ferrite in it that it can, one magnetizes, act itself like a magnet (many others cannot). The consistency of this blue is nice, thickish but after a bit of handling and warming up it is very pliable.If you like the magnetic putties, try experimenting with magnets near it. I placed 2 close together but in opposition and placed the putty on a piece of plastic on top. The results were that the putty separated in the middle and migrated to opposite sides.Dear Crazy Aaron: can I buy in bulk ;)

I like the putty but don’t get confused at first if it doesn’t get magnetic, just play for it for 5 min and it should work. If it doesn’t, you got scammed 😀

This stuff is so cool! The magnet is super strong. My kids love it!

It’s regular putty with iron filings mixed in. I kept breaking stress balls and they’d make a huge mess. Likewise, this is not something you want around fabric, it will ruin your clothes, sofa, sheets, etc. I keep it at my desk at work for stress relief. It’s very underwhelming as a “magnetic” putty. It’s only slightly ferrous. It is also a bit messier than Aaron’s other puttys. Turns my fingers blue.Tiny tins are next to impossible to open, only the big tins are reasonable to open.

I bought three different colors from amazon and each has its own unique qualities. I have hypercolor twilight, super magnetic tital wave, and super illusions super oil slick.I think out of the three, the super illusions is my favorite to just play with and stare at. It's so fascinating and the constant shifting colors is fun. However, after a while, the super illusions causes my hands to feel sticky. I know it's not supposed to, but it does. It's been like that since I first got it out of the tin, with freshly washed and dried hands, so it's the putty doing it.The magnetic is fun to squish around some, too, but I enjoy just setting it down and letting it eat a magnet. It's fun to watch. You don't get as much magnetic putty per tin as the other colors, probably because it weighs more. Don't mix in your buckyballs/zen magnets. The little metal shards get pulled out by magnets and it's a pain to get them back off the zen magnets, since they scratch them up. It's easy to get the shards off bigger magnets.The hypercolor is my favorite to squish around when I need to concentrate (I have ADHD) because it isn't distracting and has a really good consistency to it. It also doesn't make my hands feel sticky. When I buy tins of these for my fellow grad student friends, I plan on getting the hypercolor varieties.

My kids love this stuff. Keeps them busy when they need to be quite for extended times.

0 Stars!!! This putty leaves so much ink like dye on anything it touches! Skin, clothes, desks, floors and more! I have never seen anything like this with putty. It does not wash out either. It actually had me thinking someone’s pen leaked and somehow was getting all over the kids. It’s seems like it’s a different consistency and stickier than other Aaron’s putty I’ve bought in the past. Not the best option for kids who use this as a sensory tool and may not be aware of all that it is touching. Be really careful to make sure to cover clothes and surfaces it may touch while using.
