Why do we love play dough so much?

Why do we love play dough so much?

If there was ever a toy that never disappoints for toddlers, in our experience, play dough has always been it!  Not only is it a go to for creating, it offers a wealth of valuable developmental benefits for all ages!

We made our dough with calming essential oils (a special blend to make you smile and dream) as well as organic ingredients to ensure a top-quality dough for the little hands making magic happen. 

From a sensory standpoint, play dough enriches the ‘touch’ sense allowing hands to mold, pull, push, feel and play.  Activating the senses is something we feel passionate about – and each child has a sense that is stronger than the other, so for this, we focus on building the ‘touch’ sense through and through.

So, what are the developmental benefits of dough?

Fine Motor Skills are the ability to make movements using the small muscles in our hands and wrists. Kneading the dough, rolling, pinching all help with building this essential motor skill. 

Pre-writing skills are the fundamental skills children need to develop before they are able to write. These skills contribute to a child's ability to hold and use a pencil, and the ability to draw, write, copy, and color.  By playing with play dough, the hand muscles build and also improve upon this developmental essential.

Calming effect. Our personal favorite benefit by far.  To feel a calm come over us is relief.  Sometimes just the sight of Play Dough has this effect, and for others, playing with it relieves tension. Either way, calming can turn into dreaming and building the imagination – and that, can lead to happiness.

Hand-eye coordination is the ability to use our muscles and our vision in tandem. It requires the development of visual skills, like visual acuity, and muscle skills. When the two work together, young children begin to increase their ability to pick up, grasp, and manipulate objects.  This goes hand in hand with dough play.

Creativity + Curiosity = Imagination!  An equation we know is what makes children so inspiring.  Play Dough is a free form invitation to create.  Mold a ball into a snowman or add buttons to make a mold. Cut a heart and add it to a string for a wand, the world is your oyster, and we’re just here ot see it come to life.  This is a skill that also builds social development in children too to be able to explain or act out their vision.

Such a simple toy with such immense benefits.  Share your play dough inventions or developmental OT in your #medomoment.  We can’t wait to see what you create.

GET YOUR EX HUSBAND/WIFE QUICKLY AND PERMANENTLY.

My name is Emily from USA. My husband left me for another woman. The most painful thing is that I was pregnant with our second baby. I wanted him back. I did everything within my reach to bring him back but all was in vain, I wanted him back so badly because of the love I had for him, I begged him with everything, I made promises but he refused. I explained my problem to my friend and she suggested that I should rather contact a spell caster that could help me cast a spell to bring him back , I had no choice than to try it. I messaged the spell caster called Dr Zuman and he assured me there was no problem and that everything will be okay before 24hours. He cast the spell and surprisingly 14hours later my husband called me. I was so surprised, I answered the call and all he said was that he was so sorry for everything that had happened. He wanted me to return to him. He also said he loved me so much. I was so happy and went to him that was how we started living together happily again.thanks to Dr Zuman . if you are here and your Lover is turning you down, or your husband moved to another woman, do not cry anymore, contact Dr. Zuman for help now.

HOW I GOT MY WIFE BACK HOME WITH THE HELP OF A REAL AND GENUINE ONLINE LOVE SPELL CASTER DR. WALE.
      I am very happy to recommend Dr. Wale to everyone that truly needs help to fix his or her broken relationship and marriage. I found Dr. Wale online. I was desperately in need of help to bring my ex Wife back. She left me for another man. It all happened so fast and I had no say in the situation at all. She just left me after 3 years of our marriage without any explanation. I was very worried and could not eat till I went online and I found testimonies on Dr. Wale so I decided to contact Dr. Wale through his WhatsApp and I explain everything to him so he helps me cast a love spell to help us get back together. Shortly after he did the spell, my wife started texting and calling me again. She said that she was sorry and said that I was the most important person in her life and she knows that now. you can also contact him now for urgent help. WhatsApp/Text him: +1(978) 406-9575 or Email him:everlastingspellcast@gmail.com or visit his website https://everlastingspellcaster.website2.me/
