Play Doh | Kindle Child’s Creativity

Way back in 1956, some school children thought of making use of wall-paper cleaner as a modelling compound. This prompted the school management to think on reworking the product and marketing it as an arts & crafts utility in schools. 55 years after the product was introduced the composition of the product remains more or less the same and consists of flour, water, salt, boric acid and silicone oil. Today, after passing through a couple of hands, Play Doh was bought over by Hasbro in 1991.
Developments also happened on improving the product over the years. The initial product only came in white and in an off-white colour. Later, yellow, blue and red colours were added. As recently as, 1996 – gold and silver were added to the colour catalogue. In addition, the composition of the product has also changed – Hasbro advertises the product composition to consist of water, salt and wheat flour. Also petroleum jelly and borax provides a smoother feel to the final dough composition. This toy for kids is available on the e-shopping website, homeshop18.com.
