I have used it over and over, across three decades,not just with my own children but with hundreds of students in classroomsaround the world. On tabletops in both home and schools I have experienced the joyof interacting with children of all ages as they have rolled out their weekly spellingwords, constructed cities teeming with people, transport and shops, plus created dinosaurparks, zoos and farms full of exotic animals and much, much more. From twoto sixty two play dough can be a magical catalyst for hours of fun. May you and yourchild enjoy quality time together during this holiday season.Judy HerdeQingdao Expat Magazine 23
