Super Sunday Reviews--Let's Create with Play-Doh




What child does not love Play-Doh? I know that all of my children have loved it as well as all of my grandchildren!
The Play-Doh Let’s Create series is geared towards pre-schoolers for imaginative and creative learning!

I couldn’t wait to show the books to my 2 year old granddaughter, Zelda. Daddy had given her a Play-Doh set for her 2nd birthday and she was excited.
She wanted to get her “doh-doh” out every morning and play with it all day long! Mommy had a hard time getting her to do anything else.

They came to visit us for the day and I couldn’t wait to see Zelda’s reaction to the Play-Doh Let’s Create Books. I chose to have her do the Shapes one pictured here. I also let her take it home with her.

Each book includes an 11 page board book story inside. It also contains 4-1 oz. cans of Play-Doh, shape cutters, a plastic 2-sided play mat, a plastic knife and a roller.

The play mat does have 2 printed sides. One is a story type print, including the shapes. The other side is all about the shapes, and items that are of each shape.

You will see from my video below that this was really a hit! Mommy said she played and played with it at home……that is until she got all of the colors mixed up and they eventually dried.

Never fear little miss Zelda…..Grandma Marsha is buying you tubs of Play-Doh as part of your Christmas. I can’t wait to see her face light up all over again.



Below is a picture of both books that I received. I want to add that I rec'd these over a year ago. The grands still get them out on a regular basis. Even the older ones have a blast with them! Of course I've had to replace the Play-doh on a regular basis.
I can honestly say that if you have a young child I highly recommend these for both learning and fun!

Play-Doh Halloween and Christmas Craft Fun Books---Review

Play-Doh Halloween Craft Fun
ISBN 978-1-60710-917-4

Play-Doh Christmas Craft Fun
ISBN 978-1-60710-916-7

Both books are published by Silver Dolphin
Written by Susan Amerikaner, Early Childhood Specialist
Illustrated and Digitally composed by Kara Kenna

Each book includes a 32-page activity book, 4 (1 oz) containers of Play-Doh, a plastic knife, and a roller.  There are 15 projects in each book.

Below are examples of pages from each book:

As you turn each page, each book has a little story that goes along.  Opposite each story page are instructions with pictures of how to make something from that page.

I wish I had gotten these books earlier than I did.  The UPS man brought them to me late evening on the 28th.
I was glad to have 3 of my granddaughters over the afternoon of the 29th to help me with this review.

I don't know a child anywhere that doesn't like to use Play-Doh.  It's such a great imagination "toy".
The girls were more than happy to help me with my review.  I wanted them basically to pick one thing to make each, but that wasn't enough for them.
They played with these books for a good 3 hours or more!  They ended up taking over the camera as they took pictures of their projects.  Bear with me as some of them are blurry.

Willo is 6 year old.  Araya is 8 years old.  Ariel is 9 years old.

This is Araya working on making a candy cane.

It's not too late to get the Halloween Craft Fun as both books are available at Walmart.

You can also purchase both books on amazon:
