I received the products below to review in exchange for sharing my honest opinion.
I have loved PLAY-DOH ever since I was a kid and as soon as my kids were old enough I was all about them playing with PLAY-DOH. Its funny how some of my friends say PLAY-DOH is a no-no in their house because it can be a pain to clean up, but as long as my kids play with it on the hardwood floor I am fine with it. When they are done and have cleaned up as much as they can, I let the PLAY-DOH dry and just vacuum up the crumbs – its really a super easy clean up I think.
What I love about PLAY-DOH is how it allows the user to be as creative as they want. PLAY-DOH is so versatile and Hasbro keeps coming out with so many great sets. I got the chance to check out a few new PLAY-DOH sets and all three of my kids were so excited. The PLAY-DOH sets all came with a themed plastic set to incorporate the included PLAY-DOH containers with. I will say the PLAY-DOH you get in the sets is usually smaller sized so I would definitely recommend picking up additional PLAY-DOH containers for more fun.

It’s about to get completely silly around here, just how the Minions like it! Includes base, chair, two character thimbles, scissors, comb and four cans of PLAY-DOH compound.
Overall, my family loves PLAY-DOH and these new sets were a hit. Ranging between $10 and $15, they are great sets for either new PLAY-DOH fans or to add to collections. We have a big tub I keep all things PLAY-DOH inside and these sets are small enough to fit nicely but big enough to keep kids busy! They are great too for bonding between people of all ages.
PLAY-DOH is available at most major toy retailers nationwide and on HasbroToyShop.com.
