My kids love Play Doh they have had a few different sets over the years. They seem to have Play Doh in every character or theme imaginable, we have had the Play Doh sets that you can make the characters have hair and minions. The tubs of Play Doh are quite reasonably priced, you can always find online voucher codes for some savings and in plenty of different colours. The only problem we have is if the lids are left off they go dry. I think play doh is very good for hand/ eye coordination, building their imagination and improves the pincer grip. HayleyReevesHec
