Creative Wednesdays
Play dough is fun to make with kids at any age. Playing with this non-toxic dough is great for fine motor skills for toddlers. Playing with play dough helps strengthen the muscles in their hands through squishing, rolling, and shaping the dough, which will set them up well to eventually hold a pencil and write, or cut with scissors, and make arts and crafts. This also helps strengthen their hand-eye coordination. Allow kids to use tools such as rolling pins, cookie cutters, plastic animals, plastic toys, and create sculptures with homemade play dough.
