I haven't had it in the house for years, but we just moved house 6 days ago and the children needed some occupation that wasn't attached to a screen . I spied a play dough kit in Aldi and thought they would enjoy it.
Oh, they DO. It was a successful purchase from their point of view but I am going crazy. The colours are all mixed into a muddy brown! There are tiny balls of it underfoot! They don't put it away properly without my constant nagging! We end up throwing a bit of it in the bin every time they are done playing because it gets covered in crumbs. The carpets have thus far survived, but only because of draconian rules. The whole thing has stressed me out.
And I will dig this thread up in a few years when I again think we haven't had it in a while and therefore they must feel deprived. As far as I'm concerned, it should only be found in nurseries and playgroups!
