Playdough and modeling clay are excellent for STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, Mathematics) projects!
Playdough provides a tactile experience, allowing children to explore different textures, colors, and consistencies.
This sensory exploration is crucial for young children's development, particularly in understanding scientific concepts
Playdough activities, children can explore mathematical concepts such as shape, size, volume, and even basic geometry.
Playdough can be used to conduct simple science experiments, such as observing changes in texture or structure when subjected to different conditions like temperature or pressure
Children can build structures, vehicles, or even simple machines using playdough, fostering an early interest in engineering principles like stability, balance, and structure.
