Abstract Play-Doh Art
March 30, 2010 Connie, Dougie No CommentsWe had a long day today. By the end of it, we were all more than ready to be done but, with an hour until bedtime, we had to find one more activity. Dougie suggested play-doh. I agreed. So, out came the play-doh and Dougie went to town making various creations.
Play-doh is serious business.
We actually really encourage Dougie to play with things like play-doh because it helps develop his hand muscles. The occupational therapist that Dougie saw encouraged him to play with therapy putty (funny that is what Scott used to make) and play-doh is a bit more fun and has the same benefits.
Once Dougie got the play-doh soft and ready to mold, he started making “animals.” Now, you need to get your imaginations ready and just trust me that this is what he told me each one of them was.
Turtle
Goldfish
Cat
Alligator (he’s making it go “chop chop” in this picture)
Mummy and Daddy (Daddy is green) – I helped with my head
Dougie – with pieces constructed by Mum
While we played, musical stylings were provided by Connie.
