Playdough activity ideas for children and adults Playdough activities, poking things into dough!  

A fun way to play with dough is to poke and push bits and pieces into the surface of homemade recipes, tubs of Hasbro's Play-Doh or ELC's - Early Learning Centre's Soft Stuff, creating a range of  tactile and educational experiences. Prod in wax candles for pretend birthday cakes or position LED diodes for electricity enthusiasts!

Plunge pieces of citrus fruit peel or sprigs of lavender into the body of your dough to enjoy relaxing, sensory activities that lift kid's moods and helps to focus their attention.
