Land of Dough Play Dough
Land of Dough play dough is all natural and eco-friendly. It is made in small batches in the USA with natural colors, compostable glitters, almond oil, and essential oils. The dough is smooth to the touch and scented with a blend of organic chamomile, lemongrass, and lavender essential oils which add a wonderful calming dimension to the play experience.
When my kiddos were in preschool they absolutely loved playing with play dough. I would buy it in every color I could find, but they would always mix the colors together. Well, Land of Dough play dough is meant to be mixed together. Each container of dough is themed and includes multiple colors. Also included is a wooden shovel made from naturally sourced birch. Kiddos have fun scooping and blending the dough to see what's inside- while they are strengthening fine motor skills.

Begin Again still made in the USA? Amazon answers say some items are made in China and their website doesn’t say where things are made which is odd. Usually companies that make things in the USA highlight it.
