Olive oil soap,and old washing up liquid bottle to refresh soapy waterness,we did it at group two with fifteen children and two adults and it went well.

You need to put a pair of jeans or something in with it, to cause more agitation, and it can take more than one round to do it, but the finished thing is usable, and then pin it out to shape for drying. We did purses a few weeks back - you need to make them at least 50% bigger than you want the finished item.
