Sensory joy shouldn't be a luxury

Project Squish began with a simple idea: everyone deserves access to tools that help them feel calm. We build slime and sensory kits by hand and donate them, along with hands-on workshops, to schools, shelters, and community centers in the Bay Area that need them most.

What we make possible

Three ways we bring sensory support directly into communities.

🎒

Donation Slimes/Kits

Sensory kits nominated for classrooms, filled with slime and calming tools for students who need them.

🫧

Slime Workshops

Hands-on sessions where communities make their own slime and learn about sensory regulation.

🤝

Volunteer Squish Sessions

Regular gatherings where volunteers batch-make kits for our next round of donations.

Slime care

Simple tips to keep every squish soft and satisfying.

My slime got stiff — what do I do?+

Mix small amounts of lotion or glycerin in slime and knead until your slime has reached your desired consistency.Tip: Store it in an airtight container between uses.

My slime got sticky — what do I do?+

To restore it to its normal consistency, simply add a small amount of activator (borax and water) and knead until you achieve your desired texture. Be careful not to add too much activator, as this will result in a stiff slime. Tip: Store it in an airtight container between uses.

Is it safe for sensory-sensitive kids?+

Yes — our kits are made with skin-safe ingredients and tested for texture and scent sensitivities. Contains: Polyvinyl Acetate (PVA), Borax. May also contain: Colorant, Fragrance, Clay, Non-Toxic Craft Materials, Non-Toxic Absorbent Polymers.
