Polystyrene Balls 5cm - Pack of 50

The Creatistics Polystyrene Balls are a lightweight and versatile crafting essential, perfect for a wide range of classroom and creative projects. Supplied as a pack of 50, each ball measures 5cm in diameter, making them ideal for both individual and group activities. These polystyrene balls are easy to handle, making them suitable for students of all ages, and their smooth surface allows for a wide variety of decorating techniques.

Children can embellish the balls using sequins, glitter, pins, stars, paint, and more to create colourful ornaments, Christmas baubles, planets for solar system models, or fun characters and animals. They are also perfect for STEM and diorama work, as they can represent shapes, atoms, or parts of a 3D display. Please note: Craft glue can melt polystyrene, so to preserve your projects, it is recommended to use tacky craft glue for adhesion.

Exclusive to MTA, these balls are a go-to material for seasonal crafts, sensory play, and design tasks, offering educators a blank canvas for open-ended learning and imaginative exploration.
