Playdough is marvelous


Squishing, rolling, sculpting, molding...young
children love to play with playdough. Add some props from around the home and playdough play becomes a powerful way to support your child's learning. This simple preschool staple lets children use their imaginations and strengthen the small muscles in their fingers-the same muscles they will one day use to hold a pencil and write. Using playdough with you, a friend or siblings supports your child's social skills such as sharing, taking turns, and enjoying being with other people. Playdough also encourages children's language and literacy, science, and math skills-all at the same time!
