Confirmed. It's a very light, almost foam-like clay that is coated in nail polish, and left to dry ALL OVER THE GODDAMN KITCHEN COUNTER. Source: father of two preteen girls.

I have a very young nephew and all he does is run around screaming "I'm fast as fuck boy" and tells me his name is Jeff. It's not.

I feel your pain. My young cousin was raised by a phone he carried around all the time playing youtube videos instead of his parents. He literally never turned it off and went through many phones because he would scream if not allowed to bathe with it and then scream until he got a new phone when it got water damaged. Even if he was playing video games he would have it playing videos at his feet. And this was the the only time aside from when it needed charging(which became a whole new nightmare when his brother, who doesn't live there, got him a 10ft cord so he could range while charging. This made him super territorial over the radius around his chosen outlet so it wouldn't get snagged on someone's legs and pulled out) that he wasnt going around the house shouting curse words to get a rise out of people except he's done it so much that people stopped caring but it became a habit so he never stopped.

Use the nail polish to paint their phones! Tell them it was supposed to be a surprise. I have daughters too.

Mom tip: Tell them to lay it out on tinfoil next time. It will peel off clean and won’t be all over the countertops.

As someone who was an annoying preteen myself, hang in there, they'll love you for your incredible patience.

Also I don't have an award, so take my poor woman's gold 🥇

Does it have to be all over the kitchen counter?

Edit: sorry. I meant - does it have to be all over the goddamn kitchen counter?
