These are two of the creations that my kids made using the Play-Doh EZ 2 Do Zoo. (Pink Giraffe and Green Elephant, in case you weren’t sure. 
)
I like sets like these. I’m was never very good at coming up with something creative with just a lump of clay or a pile of Lego, and I always felt so lame watching other kids come up 
with the coolest sculptures and such while I sat there staring at the lump. I do have fun, though, replicating something while giving it my own little spin. I’m guessing there are lots of kids like me out there who are daunted by the idea of coming up with something from scratch, but who still love to play with Play-Doh and other arts and crafts materials. I think these types of sets are great for them. This set comes with several sets of eyes, feet, wings, ears and more, as well as some texture paddles that allow you to give a feathery or other texture to the Play-Doh body of the animals.
Of course, my 1 year old did both. He used the set and still came up with a brand new creation. What do you think we should name this one?
LOL Those are FREAKY!!
And I feel sad for you feeling lame. I was the same. My sis, however, was super-talented and even took extracurricular pottery classes.
Arent’ they though? But the kids had a blast! And I like it b/c they usually fight less when they’re creating with Play-doh.
I always wanted to be supercreative, just wasn’t happening.
