Play-doh and Role-Playing Fun
Category : Activities for kids, Kids & Kids Permalink
Play-doh ‘look-alikes’ are just everywhere these days.
And they’re getting quite creative too, I reckon!
We got this one as a gift last year.
A ‘going to the doctor’ play set.
Cute, heh.
And, it allows for role-playing fun too!
And it sure is even more fun when you have a sibling to play (and argue) with!
…
Btw, if you have original play-doh and they’re getting ‘dry and hard’, this is the tips from the Hasbro website:
To restore the softness to PLAY-DOH compound, try adding water one drop at a time and working it in to moisten the PLAY-DOH compound. You can also try wrapping the PLAY-DOH compound in a damp paper towel, returning it to the container and replacing the cover. Let it sit overnight.
Hmm.
One of these days I’ll give it a go …
Anyway.

Have fun!

The tip given is correct. As Play-doh is made of wheat, water will help them regain the softness.
I experienced this today. I just add water base on my own knowledge and it works.

Good tip! But heehee, don’t think it will work on my home made playdough that has gone mouldy, ewww

Thanks for sharing! Useful tips for other parents who most likely have dried-up play-doh too at home

Eww… usually I just throw the whole thing if it looks slightly mouldy.
And, home made playdough … hmmm really should try and make that ourselves too one of these days!
