other type of cutter that would make a clean cut. The common bits and step
bits just rip it up.

I haven't seen one of these practice pucks so I have no idea how stiff
the foam is but:

Yes, if the OP wants good advice, he should give more details. There
are various densities that are or might be called high density. Most
of us have never seen a hockey puck up close, much less a kid's
practice hockey puck. As opposed to a kid's actual hockey puck.

I do know that parents try to avoid having their kids' teeth knocked
out, and most would want it as soft as could possibly work. Maybe
it's the foam version of a wiffle ball.

Describe it in terms we can understand.
