Product Information

Full details

The Crayola Silly Scents Creative Compounds Activity Pack is designed for children who enjoy tactile, sensory-rich artistic play. This comprehensive 21-piece set offers the unique benefit of combining scented, pliable dough with moldable sand, encouraging fine motor skill development and imaginative sculpting. While it provides excellent open-ended creative opportunities, users should note that the materials can be messy if not managed, and the strong fruit fragrances may be overwhelming for those sensitive to scents.

FAQs

Are the scents in the Creative Compounds safe?

Yes, the materials are designed for sensory play and are non-toxic, though they are not intended for consumption.

Can the dough and sand be mixed together?

It is not recommended, as mixing the two materials will change their intended textures and make them difficult to clean or reuse separately.

What is the best way to clean the tools?

Wipe the tools with a dry cloth or wash them with mild soap and warm water. Ensure they are completely dry before putting them back into storage.

How many pieces are included in the pack?

The set is a 21-piece kit, which includes the compounds, sand, and various shaping tools.

Is this set appropriate for younger children?

It is best suited for children who can follow basic instructions, as the small parts and potential for mess require some supervision.

Troubleshooting

Dough is feeling dry or stiff

Knead in a single drop of water to help rehydrate the compound.

Materials are sticking to the molds

Lightly dust the molds with a small amount of cornstarch or ensure the dough is at room temperature.

Sand is no longer holding shape

Ensure the sand is kept in its airtight bag and that it is not being mixed with the dough.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Engages multiple senses through scent and touch
  • Includes a wide variety of tools and molds
  • Provides two distinct textures for different play styles
  • Encourages creative problem solving and fine motor development

Cons

  • Scented materials may not be suitable for scent-sensitive individuals
  • Materials can create clutter or residue if not used on a contained surface
  • Sand and dough must be kept separate to maintain texture integrity

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maximize the lifespan of your Creative Compounds, ensure that your workspace is flat and easy to clean, such as a plastic mat or a dedicated craft tray. Always wash hands before use to keep the materials free of dust or debris. After play, it is critical to seal the dough in its original airtight tubs and store the sand in resealable bags; failing to do so will cause the dough to dry out and the sand to lose its moldability. Keep all materials away from carpet or fabric surfaces, as the oils in the compounds can leave residue. If the dough feels slightly dry, a tiny drop of water kneaded into the material can sometimes help restore its texture.
