Crazy Aaron's Puttyworld Opens In Norristown

NORRISTOWN, PA — A maker of "creative play products," Crazy Aaron's Thinking Putty, opened their first ever retail space in Norristown last weekend.

Located at 700 East Main Street, The Shop At Puttyworld is based around Thinking Putty, a silicone-based bouncing putty product. The putty is designed for both children and adults and can be molded into a wide variety of shapes and sizes.

"This store has been 20 years in the making,” Aaron Muderick, President of Crazy Aaron’s, said in a statement. "We are so excited to be able to offer folks of all ages the opportunity to discover, explore and play with over 100 varieties of Thinking Putty. The Shop at Puttyworld is really a dream come true for me and, I hope, for many of our fans."

The Norristown stores offers more than 40 different colors and effects, in addition to specific holiday collections like "North Pole" and "Snow Angel." Some customer favorite themes include "Enchanting Unicorn" and "Dino Poop."

The company hopes the store can make a positive impact on the larger Norristown community. They helped sponsor Elmwood Park Zoo's special autism friendly Halloween event earlier this year, providing free registration for the first 100 guests.

A grand opening for the store was held on Dec. 1.
