Checklist For Play-Doh Modeling Clay
- Play-Doh can be used from the age of 1.5 years, because even if something ends up in the mouth, this is not dangerous, because the plasticine is colored with food col oring. In this age group, plasticine is particularly suitable for promoting fine motor skills.
- However, Play-Doh is only really recommended from around 3 years of age, when children start to be creative and start making their first real figures.
- Play-Doh is available in individual pots, but is almost exclusively offered in sets.
- Thus, usually several pots in different colors or glitter dough are included. Often, accessories such as rollers or cookie cutters are also included.
- There are also numerous game sets with themes:
- With oven and kitchen sets, your child can shape or cut out his own dishes and live out his fantasy as a baker.
- With addressable heads, your child can push through the Play-Doh figure, grow hair on the head and then style it as desired.
- At the Play-Doh supermarket checkout, your child shapes bills and coins and operates the cash register himself.
- Sold separately, there are also kneading tools, a storage box and play mat, cutting and shaping.
- For storage of the plasticine Play-Doh offers a special storage box.
- This is divided into 4 separate areas to sort all the kneading tools and tins and can be stored safely with the lid closed.
- The lid itself can additionally be used as a base for playing.
