Play dough. Recommended for ages 2 and up. Contains five tubs of dough, each weighing 112 g, in the colors red, yellow, green, blue, and purple. The top of the box has space for a sweet message and is designed in a cool school bus packaging. Play-Doh was discovered in 1955 by Joe McVicker when his four-year-old nephew Paul shaped fun figures out of wallpaper cleaning clay. This discovery led to the malleable substance being made available to other children to express their creativity with dough. The recipe for the super-soft Play-Doh with its unique scent is one of the best-kept secrets in the toy industry. Thanks to its production based on natural raw materials like water, salt, and wheat flour, the dough is non-toxic.
