Most summer days, in our part of the country, start of with a clear, beautiful sky and warm temperatures. However, it is not uncommon for our afternoons to be filled with several passing thunderstorms. So, what is a little one to do when stuck inside because of the rain? Get creative with Play-Doh, of course!

Growing up, Play-Doh was one of my favorite things. So, I was excited to learn that Princess P was going to get a chance to experience the fun when we were sent the
Play-Doh Poppin' Movie Snacks set to review. When it arrived, I took note of the 3+ age recommendation, but figured it would be fine since I was close by.

I opened the set and arranged all of the pieces on the kitchen table. Then, I called Princess P into the room and got ready for the fun to begin. P immediately reached for the array of colors and started pushing the Play-Doh into the food shaped molds. At first, I was worried about her mixing the colors, but then I realized it was inevitable. So, I just let her do her thing and have fun.

Of course, being the Play-Doh lover that I am, I had to get in on the fun! I showed P how to place the Play-Doh in the popcorn maker and push on the leaver to make "popcorn". I was amazed at how close to the real thing it actually looked. After making a whole batch of popcorn, we switched over to the candy and fry maker. I placed some yellow Play-Doh in the slot and showed P how to press on the leaver to make the "fries" come out. After making several fries, Princess P wanted to make something with the red Play-Doh. I placed the Play-Doh in the slot and pressed down to make several fun shapes. It was so funny to watch her expression when the shapes appeared.

The only problem we experienced with the
Play-Doh Poppin' Movie Snacks set was that some Play-Doh got stuck in the candy and fry maker and was hard to get out. This resulted in multi-colored fries and candy, but hey, it looked pretty cool. Other than that, the Play-Doh Poppin' Movie Snacks set is super fun and a great activity for those rainy days.
Buy it: The Play-Doh Poppin' Movie Snacks set is available at the
