3 years This play food set for children 3 years and up also comes with five Play-Doh colours to give you plenty of Play-Doh modelling compound to get started.

Play-Doh's current manufacturer, Hasbro, says the compound is primarily a mixture of water, salt, and flour, while its 2004 United States patent indicates it is composed of water, a starch-based binder, a retrogradation inhibitor, salt, lubricant, surfactant, preservative, hardener, humectant, fragrance, and color.

Cooking your homemade playdough reduces the risk of children contracting illnesses from contaminated flour. It may be a little sticky just after cooking, but it should stay soft and pliable for at least a week.

Bake playdough sculptures in a 250°F oven for 20 to 30 minutes or until the exterior is dry and hard. Baking time varies depending on the thickness of the sculpture. Playdough will not bake all the way through. Once the exterior is baked and sealed, the interior will dry and harden over time.

Allow the children to make shapes using their hands or cookie cutters and then set aside to dry. If you leave them out to the air it could take up to a week for the dough to completely dry. I often place them in the oven on low for a couple of hours after a day or so and that will help the dough dry faster.

Bake the dough at 200°F until hard. The amount of time depends on size and thickness. Thin pieces might take 45-60 minutes, thicker pieces might take 2-3 hours. Check on your pieces in the oven every 1/2 hour or so until they are hard.

Play dough helps build multiple fine motor skills, while promoting play, as it instantly provides multi-sensory hands-on interaction. Children who are tactile seekers love to engage with play dough, and instantly begin squishing, squeezing, and molding it.
