This set is perfect for a four or five-year-old to keep them busy quietly, or work in tandem with your toddler (as little as two years and up can enjoy this set) and re-create the cast of Sesame Street. Each set comes with primary colors red, blue, and yellow, and they mix together beautifully to create secondary colors.

There are so many benefits of playing with the dough at an early age. Not only will it spark creativity but your kiddo will learn hand-eye coordination, build social skills, and enhance fine motor skills. Using the different tools also prepares kids to hold a pen or pencil, which is a necessary skill to learn. Freehand play with dough is also helpful as your kiddo squishes, squeezes, and rolls the dough they are exercising different muscles in their hands. 

Green Toys makes a wonderful line of dough that is made from organic flour, is food safe, and there are dishwasher safe parts for a super easy cleanup! The dough is great for teaching toddlers their colors as all of the dough is safe to touch (and if eaten they’ll be fine - don’t tell them that though!). The dough is non-toxic and is made in a food-safe facility, which means it is good for your kiddo to play with and super easy to clean up, especially to clean from the included activity card. There are 12-piece set includes a star extruder, a spaghetti extruder, scraper, knife, roller, rolling cutter, safety scissors, two-sided activity card, pop-out features sheet, and three tubs of dough. The dough really goes a long way. We were able to create all of the characters, as well as a cookie for Cookie Monster, and even a plate of delicious spaghetti with star shaped meatballs.
