Abstract: In one embodiment, a doll accessory for play or use with a doll or other toy figure is provided. The doll accessory may include a first portion of a doll accessory including a layer of fabric coated with a molding chemical solution and plastically deformed into a substantially resilient three-dimensional shape. A second portion of a doll accessory may be secured to the first portion of a doll accessory. In some embodiments, the second portion of a doll accessory may include a layer of fabric coated with a molding chemical solution and plastically deformed into a substantially resilient three-dimensional shape. In some embodiments, the second portion of a doll accessory may be adhesively bonded to the first portion of a doll accessory.

Abstract: A reusable, fluid-swellable absorbent composition is disclosed. The composition generally includes a superabsorbent polymer, a gum, a film-forming resin and gelatin. The composition may further include a colorant and/or reflective particles, and it is particularly well-suited for use with amusement devices, such as for use by children. The device includes at least one sample of the invented composition, preferably including colorant and/or glitter, a volume of water and a structure including a base and a closed perimeter extending outwardly from the base. The structure includes a plurality of discrete regions, and may collectively resemble an object, scene or other image. Then upon placement of a small quantity of the composition into a particular region and addition of water to the quantity, the composition swells, expands and generally conforms to the shape of the region.
