Candy Corn Playdough Sensory Activity

This is a very simple Candy Corn Playdoh Sensory Activity suitable for preschool and kindergarten-aged children.

Creating crafts with Playdoh is perfect for helping young kids strengthen the muscles in their little hands!

Rolling out Playdoh and cutting it with a plastic knife helps young kids strengthen their fine motor skills and enhances their hand-eye coordination. 

Adding small items like buttons, perler beads and pom poms will help your child with focus, concentration and hand-eye coordination. Not to mention, it’s just FUN to play with!
