Nickelodeon Floam – 4 Pack

Thursday, July 5, 2012

Jake immediately decided against making a dragon. He’d seen three other kids in his class make dragons out of regular old clay before Summer Break started, which told him they were a little too popular for his taste. And besides, he thought, there isn’t much about dragons that hasn’t been done before. Good dragons, bad dragons, dragons with multiple wings, dragons with no wings, none of it really inspired him anymore.

For a moment, he thought maybe he’d sculpt a giant alien beast that might threaten the peaceful world his grandmother’s knick-knacks lived in. Then he remembered he’d used that same idea the last time he’d visited, and sighed with disappointment. It seemed like such a waste to mix and mash all the colorful beads of the Nickelodeon Floam on such a tired old idea.

So Jake continued to stare at all four Floam Domes, each containing a different color, just as he had for the last half an hour, waiting for some spark that might ignite the fires of his imagination. A lizard king, maybe? Perhaps a hideous Rainbow Foot of Stomping Terror? None of it seemed like the right way to go.

I know, he thought, I’ll go help grandma tidy up the house a little. I’m thinking about this way too hard, anyway. Once my mind is off all the squishy fun, I’ll be able to relax and come up with something so awesome that even Olivia will have to tell me it’s cool. And not in a snarky way, either.

Thirty minutes later, every surface at Grandma’s had been dusted and polished to perfection and he still had no clue what to make.

Jake put his face in his hand and squished his cheeks in hard as he gazed into the infinite possibilities each container in the Floam 4-pack held within. He was afraid of this. He’d peaked early, he was sure of it now. His best work was behind him in his Kindergarten years, he just knew it.

How do I remove Floam from clothing/fabric/carpet/counter/hair?

With short-term contact on these surfaces (less than 30 seconds), there is an extremely limited chance of any transfer, staining or discoloration. Avoid having Floam come into contact with hair, paper, unfinished wood, soft fabric, varnished, painted or porous surfaces. If you do accidentally get Floam on an unintended surface for a prolonged period, follow these steps:

1. Remember that Floam is water soluble and can be removed easily from most surfaces with soap and warm water.
2. Remove as much Floam as possible by hand.
3. Remove the excess from surfaces with warm water and a sponge or cloth.
4. Dried Floam can be loosened by applying a wet cloth for several minutes. Once softened, remove as much as possible by hand. Then apply a cleaning solution (such as soap and water – or as recommended by the garment or item’s care and cleaning label) to remove the balance of the Floam.
5. With clothes that you would normally just put in the wash, Floam should come out with ease. Make sure Floam is removed from clothing before putting in a dryer.
6. If you get Floam in your hair, gently remove as much of the Floam as possible, then just wash your hair normally to remove any remaining Floam.

It is important to note that this is a whole new version of Floam and is very different than the old Floam which some customers have referenced in the comments.
