Playskool Play-Doh Fun Factory Super Set 19 oz

My nearly 4 year old grandson loves his playdough. I personally don't like playdough but it's a greatchance to sit down and bond with your child. Good one on one time. Yeah, the little machine that makes spaghetti and strips of other shapes, like everyone says, it's kind of hard for a little one to do by himself and the playdough does get stuck in little grooves of the inside of the machine but the kids seem to love it. My grandson loves it when I roll out a big piece nice and thin and then he can take the one of the cutters and do his thing.... and the shapes, he loves making people and animalls... a great toy to occupy them and to let them use their imagination. I also bought from Amazon another 4 pack (I think it was) of things to use with this set. I think the other set had a rolling pin with handles which is easier for me to use than the one that came with it. Almost time to get some fresh playdough. Buy from Amazon guys - they always stand behind their customers!

Such a fun product for a two year old! This set has a great variety of items and the noodle-making tool is a huge hit.Mess factor: Yes this stuff does shed little pieces everywhere. If you have carpet inside, a mess mat under the table helps. If you don't wear shoes inside, I recommend bare feet. If you get squashed Play-Doh on socks, just wait til it dries out then scratch it off with your nail or a brush of some kind, then wash as normal after applying stain remover.Clean-up: After playing use a large piece of Play-Doh to press onto all the little bits on the table or floor to pick them up. To clean the bits out of the tools, I use a toothpick to get at the little holes and crevices. Easy!

This is a great kit with a lot of options for little people! The pros are that there are a lot of options and a variety of tools. The cons are that some of the tools are difficult for younger kids to use on their own. The pressing machine is difficult for kids and a ton of play-doh tends to get stuck in it. The cookie cutters are great. The little red circles that just create imprints aren't all that exciting for kids and they have a hard time using them. The rolling pin with different textures is pretty cool but the little texture circles don't really stay on well so it can be a challenge to use as well. Overall. this may be better for older kids (5+) or with a lot of help.

I bought this for a 3 year old girls birthday present and she LOVES it! As an Early Childhood Educator, I feel like this set in particular provides many skills for the younger preschool age children (3-4 yr olds) Many fine and gross motor skills involved, but nothing too challenging. It also doesn't really have a theme to the set, so the children can use their own imagination rather than an idea that was thought of by an adult who designs Playdoh products. I would highly recommend this set.

I had one of these when I was a kid (still have it). I bought this new one for my nephew. It is great and fun and all that but there is a weird hole (not a single product flaw- a design flaw) that your play-doh smushes through. The hole has no apparent function and should not be there. If you want to change colors, you have to clean out the hole and all the mess it has made so you don't get dingy play-doh.

An economical way to get all the tools a beginner Play-Doh enthusiast needs. My daughter was SO happy that this also came with cans of Play-Doh. Two or three weeks in, and she is still going strong! I suggestion: get a plastic shoe box to store all the pieces in when they are not in use...or they will get lost...in a day!

Appears to be a much larger ser and there is virtually no play-doh in the package to use. You have to purchase additional larger cans of Play-Doh to use this set at all!

Mainly bought this for the Play Doh press, as cookie cutters can be purchased anywhere. The 2 inserts that came with the press to make various shapes pops out of the press when pushing the play-doh through. Thought maybe the play-doh that came with was too dry so bought fresh at the store and the same thing happened. It was no fun.
