benefits of play dough

seal of approval

Dough Animal has always had learning through play at its core, so we decided that the best way to make sure we are creating products that not only look and smell good but are perfect to use for learning through play we needed to put them to the test.

We can confirm that our products are approved by the Teacher and Occupational Therapist Duo Bellala and their students.

Bellala are working professionals who also offer amazing products for teachers, therapists and parents to facilitate learning through play and growth.

Using the play dough in my classroom has provided fun motivation for my students to engage in maths and language activities. They consistently choose the Dough Animal play dough over store bought dough.

The play dough is soft and pliable without leaving residue on the hands, which works well for children who are sensitive to textures. The play dough is beautifully designed, making it a wonderful and fun experience to use in educational ways.

what our customers say

Bought my nephew a Dino Dough for his birthday a few months ago and he still loves it. It's so soft and smells like delicious apples and it's made with natural ingredients so is safe for his baby brother to play with too. Definitely recommend a thousand times!
Google Review
The most amazing texture and scents! The stamps and tools are definitely the best addition to any set of dough.
Kathryn Teixeira
I have been buying pots of this lovely dough for my children's subscription box business for almost a year now and it is always super popular with our little customers. I was originally drawn to Dough Animal because of the fact that all the ingredients are completely natural (so safe for little ones) but the reason I have returned time after time for more is because it is the softest dough I have ever come across and it all smells amazing.
Emma Page
OMG what an incredible package. The smells, the texture, the packaging!!! WOW!!!
INSTAGRAM REVIEW
Thank you so much for helping with the gift note. It's a huge hit and looks gorgeous!
CUSTOMER REVIEW
The quality of each item is always great and no request from our side is ever too much trouble when it comes to customisation of our orders for our parties. From the start we have had nothing but an excellent and super professional client service experience and we look forward to many more Dough animal collaborations in the future.
