To Model or Not To Model Magic?

by jo.com Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 10, Apr 08 '01
Pros: It can be painted, decorated and won't color.
Cons: One time use only. May stain clothes.
I discovered Model Magic as a substitute to children with special needs. When I first saw it I thought it was playdough, then I thought it was clay. Well, it is neither. It is an entity all it’s own. It has its good points and bad.

Imagination is Magic

by MagickCat , Mar 17 '05
Pros: Its awesome.
Cons: Very hard to find. Smelly winegum smell. Packaging sucks. Sort of Expensive.
How awesome is this stuff? Well this stuff is like play-doh on steroids. You can make just about anything with Crayola Model Magic. Craft yourself a pair of one of a kind earrings, turn a cartoon character you've sketched into a mascot for your desk, ...

Model student

by yogore Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Oct 06 '01
Pros: soft, pliable, easy to work with
Cons: nearly impossible to store for any length of time
To begin with, I'll admit that I'm probably a bit older than the average Model Magic user; heck, I don't even have kids yet. When I tear open that foil bag, I'm not planning on constructing a horsey or a little car. I've got something else in mind....

This stuff rocks! I have a Magic Model right here!

by Roov , Oct 11 '01
Pros: Squishy fun, intriguingly weird-feeling
Cons: Not reusable, not available in glow-in-the-dark metallic colors or with glitter
I am a mature adult. I have mature adult interests, like filing status for taxes and whether I'm eating enough vegetables. I do not spend all my time watching old movies and making little animals out of modeling clay.

Nevertheless, that was...

Crayola Model Magic resembles modeling clay except that Crayola made it way cooler!

At a preschool teachers conference, I was given several samples Of Crayola Model Magic! I stashed the samples into my bag and decided that I would let the kids test this stuff before I ordered any. Upon returning to my classroom a few days...

Magic?? You Bet!

by Carey-ann , Aug 30 '00
Pros: Inexpensive, Imaginative, Fun
Cons: Can stain, "melt", may not keep long
My Mom first introduced us to Model Magic, giving my then 2 1/2 yr. old a bag to play with. I couldn't pry it from her hands for days, until it dried up because she wouldn't let me put it in a bag. She's since had much more of it pass through her...

Messes Magically Minimized with Crayola

by depaola1 , Jul 04 '00
Pros: easy clean up, doesn't crumble, doesn't stick as bad to carpet, furniture, etc. as other materials do
Cons: basic colors, only, not packaged in resealable containers, moderately expensive
I, too, received a sample of Crayola Model Magic at my local Hallmark. I didn't really know what it was and basically left it on my kitchen counter. A few days later while my two year old was in the middle of a melt-down and I was looking for a...

A Real Sanity Saver

by Ohara1861 , Mar 06 '01
Pros: Nice feel, primary colors, encourages imagination, great stress reliever
Cons: may stain if hands are wet, packages don't seal shut
Every once in a while I will purchase Crayola's Model Magic for either a school project or just for play. It is by far better than Play-Doh in terms of texture, consistency, and mess factor.

Last week, before I left with my 4 children to fly...

We received this as a promotional gift from our local Hallmark store. There were sample packs included with other goodies for some sort of young customer appreciation day or something. Anyway, from the minute we opened the package, my kids and I loved...

Look out Donatello!

by ar_c , Feb 09 '01
Pros: Fun and easy to work with.
Cons: Unable to store in original container.
Model Magic is modeling clay for kids. It is easy to work with, comes in a variety of colors, and air dries in a few hours. Kids can really be creative with this clay.

The first thing I noticed about this clay is how "fluffy" it felt. It...

Crayola does it again!

by zsmomx2 , Jun 22 '00
Pros: Doesn't crumble, great spongy texture.
Cons: Not the best smell in the world, but you have to get pretty close to it to tell.
Once again, Crayola has proven that it knows how to please kids AND their parents. Model Magic is a great spongy clay that doesn't crumble like other modeling compounds and still holds it's shape. It comes in all the fun, bright colors kids love and...
