PreK Tidbit – Playdough

Playdough isn’t just a fun activity—it’s a key player in early childhood development! Creativity: Encourages little ones to use their imagination, turning blobs into masterpieces!

Fine Motor Skills: Squishing, rolling, and shaping help build those tiny muscles in fingers and hands.

Sensory Play: Engages multiple senses, including touch, sight, and smell, but hopefully not taste!

Social Skills: Fosters cooperation and sharing when kiddos play together.

Cognitive Development: Enhances problem-solving, planning, and sequencing skills.

So, next time you see your preschooler diving into a tub of playdough, know that they’re not just having fun—they’re growing and learning in the most colorful way!
