Meet Mermaid Beach, a sensory play experience from Little Munchkins that turns everyday play into a calming, creative ritual. The pastel pink and blue marbled dough is kissed with mermaid-inspired clay slices and a soothing rhubarb-and-plum fragrance, inviting kids and adults alike to squeeze, roll, and sculpt while unwinding from the day.
Why Mermaid Beach works for relaxation and development
- Sensory-rich, long-lasting dough: a luxuriously soft, pliable texture that invites tactile exploration, helping to calm nerves and sharpen focus during quiet time or after school.
- Calming scent and mood boost: rhubarb and plum fragrance oils create a gentle aroma as you work with the dough, enhancing relaxation and mindful breathing.
- Mermaid-themed creativity: includes mermaid flat backs (styles and colours may vary) plus mermaid-inspired clay slices to spark imaginative play and storytelling, making each session feel special.
- Non-toxic and food-grade: crafted with careful ingredients for safe play, while noting the dough has a high salt content and is not intended to be eaten.
- Marble beauty with practical quirks: pastel pink and blue marbling looks enchanting, with occasional salt crystals that re-dissolve into the dough after kneading—a natural part of its texture.
Safety, longevity, and practical care
- Age guidance and supervision: recommended for children 3+ years with adult supervision. Do not leave the kit unattended and be mindful of small parts that could be a choking hazard.
- Storage for best results: keep in the airtight jar provided and store in a cool, dark place. For longevity, use regularly; your dough loves handling and activity.
- Shelf life and care: dough should be discarded after 6 months if stored in an airtight container. If colors shift over time, knead to re-incorporate pigments and restore the marbled look.
- Salt crystals tip: if crystals appear on top, simply knead them back into the dough—this is normal and doesn’t affect safety or usability.
What’s inside and what to expect
- What you get: Mermaid Beach playdough featuring pastel marble, included mermaid flat backs (styles/colors vary), and mermaid-inspired clay slices; the scent is a pleasant rhubarb and plum fragrance.
- Ingredients and allergens: Contains wheat, salt, food coloring/plant dye, cream of tartar, vegetable oil, and essential oil. Does not contain nuts, dairy, eggs, or soy—but it is handmade in a facility that handles those items, so cross-contamination is possible.
- Care tips for best results: store properly, knead regularly to keep the texture soft, and enjoy the creative play as a relaxing ritual. If you notice color variation, that’s part of the unique Mermaid Beach charm.

We Have Lots More Like This.........
Hello, we are Sostter....
Sostter began, as all good ideas do, with a lively conversation and a shared sense of frustration. Why had the world of independent design become so serious, so samey, so… beige? Where was the spark, the imagination, the sheer joy of discovering something that made you stop and stare?
We dreamt of a marketplace that celebrated difference — where curious minds could explore a world of independent brands, design-led makers, and thoughtful artisans. A space that felt exciting, human, and beautifully imperfect. Today, Sostter brings together remarkable people and their creations — from London to Lausanne, Brooklyn to Berlin — uniting makers and discoverers through craftsmanship, creativity, and conscience.
Every object tells a story, and every purchase supports an independent brand doing things differently. Explore our British makers, discover sustainable brands, browse women-led businesses, find the perfect gift for her, or simply wander through our new arrivals and see what finds you.
This is just the beginning. But enough about us — read all about us, or step inside and see what catches your imagination.
