Crayola - Silly Putty
Silly Putty
Stretch, bounce, and mold the legendary putty that defies physics
Silly Putty defies expectations in ways that keep hands busy and minds engaged. This silicone polymer bounces higher than rubber, yet stretches without snapping when pulled slowly. The same material that shatters under a hammer's impact will gradually flow and flatten under steady finger pressure, a tangible demonstration of non-Newtonian fluid behavior that makes physics concepts immediately graspable.
Artists and designers use Silly Putty for quick mold-making, texture experiments, and lifting graphite or newsprint for transfer effects. Press it firmly against pencil drawings to pull up marks cleanly, creating ghost images or removing unwanted lines without erasers. The material's unique properties make it useful for hand strengthening exercises, stress relief during creative blocks, or simply exploring material behavior through direct manipulation.
Each egg contains enough putty for serious experimentation. The Original version delivers classic pink compound in its iconic red storage egg. Super Bright and Glow variants arrive in random colors, adding an element of surprise while maintaining the same remarkable physical properties that have made this material a studio staple since 1950. Store it in the egg between sessions to prevent dust pickup and maintain optimal consistency.
