Playfoam - Shape & Learn Counting Cards
Get ready for endless squish-and-shape adventures with Playfoam! The lightweight, colourful foam material doesn’t crumble, doesn’t stick to skin or surfaces, and never dries out.
Playfoam is made of tiny foam beads that stick together for easy modelling, yet pull apart effortlessly when it's time to start again. The vibrant colours inspire imaginative play, while the wonderfully squishy texture helps develop fine motor skills.
Playfoam won't dry out, but for the longest lifespan, it's best stored in a sealed container. We also recommend washing your hands before playing with Playfoam. After all, lint, dust, and snack crumbs don't always make the most charming additions to your child's Playfoam creations!
Playfoam contains polymer, polystyrene beads, and colour pigments.
With this fun set, little learners can squish, shape, and play their way to recognising letters and numbers. It includes 13 double-sided activity cards and 8 different colours of Playfoam.Â

Read all about what they’re made of and how to use them right here.Toys for learning through play
Play is essential for children’s learning, well-being, and development. Through play, children learn about themselves and the world around them.
Play helps children:
• stay curious
• focus and become absorbed in what they're doing
• take on age-appropriate challenges
• build confidence
We believe children learn best by doing things for themselves:
• by making mistakes
• by getting messy
• by falling down and getting back up again
Resilience, confidence, and courage grow through experience, one small step at a time.
That's why we carefully choose toys that encourage independence, imagination, movement, and social skills — offering just the right balance of support, freedom, and opportunities to grow.
Carefully selected toys
We carefully handpick every toy from the vast world of toys available today. The only toys that make it into our range are ones we'd be happy to give our own children.
Every toy at ToyAcademy should:
• support learning through play
• be made from durable, high-quality materials
• be safe and enjoyable for children to play with
