I’ve been wanting to make playdough kits for about 2 years now since starting to make them for my girls. It’s something I genuinely love doing! I enjoy being creative, coming up with unique themes and putting together beautiful colour palettes for my kits. I started off just making some for friends and family, party favours for my girls birthdays and small gifts. After so much positive feedback, I decided to take the leap and turn it into a little business!
What makes my kits special is the care and thought that goes into each one. Every kit is designed and made by me, from the colour palettes to the themes, and I really take my time with the details. I focus on creating soft, beautiful colours and thoughtfully chosen pieces that spark imagination and open-ended play. This business grew from something I loved doing for my own children, and that’s still at the heart of it — creating something special that encourages creativity, play, and connection.
I still love sitting down with the playdough myself — arranging each piece to showcase little scenes is one of my favourite parts and seeing how everything works together. I take a lot of time searching for different sensory materials that can be repurposed and used and finding all the little items that match to make the kit cohesive and special. I use non toxic ingredients for the handmade playdough and kid-safe components to ensure quality and safety.
Im still new so not completely sure yet but my friends and family love the “strawberry picnic pals sensory playdough kit”.
The Strawberry Kit features a fun picnic-style theme that encourages pretend play. Kids can create sweet little picnic scenes with teddy bear and bunny charms, mini teacups, pastries, and strawberry treats. There are lots of open-ended ways to play, from making playdough cupcakes to using stamps and texture rollers for added creativity and fun. The little details — like jars of strawberry jam, strawberry-themed sprinkles, tiny pinecones and trees, and small teacups — make the kit feel extra special and incredibly adorable. Sensory and open-ended play has so many benefits for children including exploring freely, building confidence, and expressing creativity. Playdough kits make such thoughtful gifts or simple everyday activities for kids. They offer a fun, screen-free way to play, and as a bonus, they’re something parents genuinely enjoy too, making it easy to spend quality time playing together.
The Strawberry Picnic Pals playdough kit is one of my favourites. I love sitting down and playing with it alongside my girls and watching what they create. They absolutely love all the tiny details, and it’s so special seeing them enjoy something I took the time to create just for them.
