Lately, my girls are obsessed with Shopkins! I don’t know what it is about them but they love them! If you’re looking to do a fun activity with your kids, you can make your own Shopkins Soap!
Materials Needed to Make Shopkins Soap
2 shopkins
Clear glycerin soap block
Knife
Cutting board
Any rectangle soap mold
Soap scent (optional)
Clear Pyrex measuring cup
Wooden spoon
Small sauce pot
Directions to Make Shopkins Soap
1. Cut your large clear glycerin soap into about 5 ice cube sized pieces
2. Place your soap pieces into a glass Pyrex measuring cup
3. Place your measuring cup into a small pot of boiling water on the stove
4. Let your water boil around your measuring cup until the glycerin soap is melted (about 8 minutes)
5. Add in 1 tablespoon of your scent (I choose strawberry!)
6. Place your Shopkins face down inside your mold
7. Using a pot holder, carefully grab your measuring cup and pour your melted soap over your Shopkins
8. Let cool at room temperature for 10 minutes, then transfer to the freezer for the last 10 minutes
9. Carefully stretch the sides of your mold and press up on the bottom to remove your Shopkins soap
The kids are now going to love washing their hands and the more they wash, the quicker they get the Shopkins!
Make sure to pin my free printable Shopkins Valentine’s Day cards, too!

My kids are obsessed with Shopkins too! We have them all over the house! At least they are small and don’t take up that much room. I love this idea–I may do this for my daughter’s upcoming birthday. Thanks for the inspiration!

Curious is the faces come off once these get used up. Thinking about making these as party favors for my girls’ birthday party, but if they lose their faces (my husbands thinks they will), the girls might not be too happy with me 😛
