Review Disclosurer

September 16th is World Play-Doh Day and it is a holiday my kids have really been looking forward to. Play-Doh is a childhood staple. Kids of all ages love creating, sculpting, and building with Play-Doh. It is such an amazing toy and really the options of playing with it are endless! Whatever your imagination can come up with you can create with Play-Doh. We celebrated World Play-Doh Day last year and it was so much fun. This year we made it a big event in honor of Play-Doh’s 60th birthday!

Celebrating World Play-Doh Day & Play-Doh's 60th Birthday On September 16th!

Play-Doh sent us all the supplies we needed to throw an epic party and it was a blast! I am so excited to make this a tradition every year. We had balloons, a fun bright table cloth, confetti poppers, Play-Doh water bottles, and no birthday party is complete without cupcakes. We also had so much Play-Doh! My kids played with it for hours. I love that Play-Doh comes in so many colors. They have a great 20 pack of assorted colors to help you get started in your creations. Play-Doh also has so many fun playsets to help take your imagination to the next level.

My kids were squealing with delight seeing all the fun playsets. Hayden was immediately drawn to the Star Wars At-At-Attack playset. He is a huge Star Wars fan and loved the Can Heads Play-Doh. The set also comes with little lightsabers in red and blue. His eyes got so big squeezing Play-Doh out of the At-At Walker. Then he sliced it off with his very own lightsaber. Hayden loved this set and is looking forward to playing with the Doctor Drill N’ Fill playset tomorrow. He is super excited to be a dentist and play with some Play-Doh teeth.

Halli was really excited to bake and make ice cream with Play-Doh. The Cake Party playset had so many fun little features. Halli made a bunch of little cookies and shapes. The playset also comes with sprinkle filled Play-Doh that is so darling. She dove into the pink Play-Doh with purple sprinkles and had a blast making her own birthday cake. Halli got super into it and focused. Her tongue was hanging out most of the time while she was super focused on her work. I loved watching the wheels in her head turn as she tried to figure out what to do next.
