POINT PLEASANT BEACH – The company is all about making things fun for children. And what could be more fun than slime?

The company was created three years ago to create the toy slime that children across the country "can’t seem to get enough of," according to a News12 report.

They have what they call a “We Cool” brand of slime and slime-like compounds – both of which have been among Compound Kings's most popular items just as the company has grown 10 times over in just a year.
