Essential Tools for Your Play-Doh Adventures
Play-Doh can be a double-edged sword. While it keeps my kids busy long enough for me to catch up on chores—or even indulge in some guilty pleasures like binge-watching my favorite show—there’s the ensuing chaos of vibrant little bits scattered around my home. I know I’ll be cleaning up dried remnants for weeks, but the joy it brings my children makes it worthwhile. To enhance our Play-Doh experience and reduce the mess, I’ve compiled a list of must-have gear.
- An Abundance of Play-Doh
The worst scenario is when the kids are excited to play, only to discover that the tubs we have are stale or mixed up. I recommend keeping several fresh containers on hand, stored away for easy access. When the old Play-Doh gets too gross, I simply swap it for the new stuff. Plus, with Amazon’s Dash Button for Play-Doh, you can easily reorder supplies without remembering to add them to your shopping list. This button alerts Amazon over Wi-Fi when you’re low, and the credit you earn covers its cost the first time you press it. - Extra-Large Silicone Baking Mats
These mats are lifesavers for keeping the mess contained. I lay one out for each child to keep the Play-Doh from getting smashed into the grooves of the table. After playtime, we simply collect the Play-Doh back into its containers and shake off the mats into the trash. No more tedious tape-picking sessions to gather tiny bits! - Play-Doh Tools
A set of Play-Doh tools is essential. They provide everything kids need to cut, shape, and mold the dough into anything they can imagine. - Play-Doh Fun Factory
If you’re diving into Play-Doh play, a Fun Factory is a must-have. I fondly remember using this as a child, and it still captivates my son today. It’s his go-to item whenever we bring out the Play-Doh. - K-Cup Carousel
For those who prefer the smaller Play-Doh containers, a K-Cup carousel offers a clever storage solution, especially in tight spaces. It keeps everything organized without cluttering the table.
Embracing Play-Doh is inevitable in family life, so why not make the experience smoother and more enjoyable for everyone?
