Playdough recipe

Children learn through play, and what better way to introuduce them to new textures, consistencies and even smells, than through creating playdough! Playdough can help children to develop hand, eye, arm, and body coordination through squeezing, rolling, pinching and cutting with scissors. It’s also a great way for them to express their creativity as playdough is easy to mould and manipulate.

By making the dough together and discussing things like colour, texture, and what happens when liquids are added, it’s a great way to support your tamariki to learn.
