Last minute Gift Idea: Play-Doh

In doing my shopping for Bacchus Jr. (BJ) this year I purposely sought out Play-Doh. Since BJ was 2, he has always enjoyed playing with some form of Play-Doh. After receiving a molding kit for x-mas last year, we just added to it whenever the colors got hard or too mixed up to resemble any recognizable color. I was interested in seeing what other Play-Doh products were available so I visited the official Hasbro site and learned that Play- Doh was originally designed as a compound to assist with wallpaper cleaning. Bet you didn’t know that….Don’t ask me how, I just thought it was interesting.

The website has some useful items that include tips for parents, teachers and a fresh idea page–more than enough to keep your young one entertained all year long.

Wal-Mart has the Play Doh Creativity Table for $28.95.

Toys R Us has the Play Doh Fun Bucket for $10.99

KB Toys has the Classic Colors Four Pack for $3.99

So if you are looking for a last minute gift item for a young one, consider a gift that is timeless and helps them explore their imagination.
