Come hang out while squishing, smooshing, rolling and flattening homemade play dough! When a child uses play dough, they build strength in their hands and increase fine motor skills. This strength will make them ready for pencil and scissor control later in life. Please register each participant individually to ensure we have enough supplies for everyone.
