A little while ago my mum found an old toy in the loft which belonged to my sister. A box of creature parts to use in play dough. Today we had great fun with these and the children made some great animals/ creatures.
I have also found that it encourages A to try and use her hands more as she struggles with coordination and manipulative skills.
I love discovering old toys like these and I'm sure they will get a lot of use now :0)
We have these at toddler group and they are so much fun. I like the way they don't get in the way of children's creativity like some of the modern play doh sets do. Children can make what they want just with a little bit of help.
ReplyDeleteYour creations look great! What fun! We've done this with Potato Head pieces as well, and the kids always love that.
ReplyDeleteThose creatures are great fun. Great idea to combine the parts with playdough.
ReplyDeleteCute! The accessories are just great and can really fuel a child's imagination. Vicky from www.messforless.net
