Play Dough Monsters

I received this great “Rainy Day Survival Kit” set of craft supplies free, from CraftProjectIdeas.com & Horizon Group.

We look forward to doing a lot more activities with these materials, but today, we made play dough monsters. I loved this idea that’s been circulating online on Pinterest, Teach Preschool, etc.  We did have a rainy morning so this was perfect with 9 boys today!


I really liked how the “stripey” pipe cleaners looked. Fun! Who knew they poked into play dough so nicely?
