Family Favorite

Play Doh in my household is a favorite. We all sit down as a family to play doh and it has been great watching my kids play the same thing that I used to play when I was a kid.

Lots of stuff makes this a win!

This is the perfect set of beginner's Play-Doh for kids who have never owned Play-Doh or have an extremely basic collection that they'd like to add to.

I only have one minor complaint which is that there really isn't any guidance for some pieces. For example, I had to come check the pictures to figure out what to do with some of the loose pieces. They turned out to be part of a rolling pin set. The extruder too, was pretty self explanatory, but some people get confused easily and would surely welcome a brief description or set of instructions. If you want to play with your kids or show them how to use these, you need to know how. I still don't understand why the man and woman molds have a hole in them (perhaps to push out the doh...or not?). Although actually, another minor complaint is that the 'mats' included could definitely be a bit bigger and more plasticky. Play-Doh does smear on them, but can be removed by sticking to more Play-Doh, but I feel like using the cutting tools on them leaves too many marks and I wish they had more of a 'wipe-clean' surface as opposed to slightly plasticky cardboard.

I also wish a cleaning tool was provided, which is my common complaint when it comes to Play-Doh!

However, what it really comes down to is here you get a ton of stuff. A whole bunch of cutters, rollers, extruders and more. You also get some mini-tubs of colours to start your collection. Overall, it's just a really well-rounded and fun set and despite my (again minor) complaints, you really can't go wrong with this!
