Practical tips for maintaining playdough

We want you to have the best experience with our playdough by The Wild Hearts. Therefore, we will give you practical tips for how you can maintain it so you can get the most out of your playdough.

Tips for the best play experience

• Keep jar with playdough closed when you are not using it.
• Put used playdough back in the jar for later play. Add 2-5 drops of water if it suddenly feels a bit dry. Softer playdough works better for smaller kids.
• Playdough crumbs are also easy to collect when they are dry. Collect crumbs by a larger piece of playdough.
• Try mixing 2 colours together to get new flavours and colours.
• To preserve your piece of art, let it dry in the oven at 50-60C for 2-4 hours. The colour will fade, but you can make it brighter by covering it with paint or transparent varnish.

Natural & organic

• The playdough is natural and can slightly vary in colours and texture from the picture and from batch to batch.
• If your playdough starts feeling a bit dry or white hint occurs on it (crystallising salt) – try adding a drop of water, it was probably exposed to too much air.
• Playdough by The Wild Hearts has been safety tested and no harmful bacteria should occur in it. However it is an organic and natural product with use of mild and safe preservatives. Make sure it is not exposed to liquids and air and you can play with it for months.

Warnings                    

• The playdough is non-edible. It’s made to taste bitter to avoid the big eat.
• Contains organic wheat, organic oils, salt, and organic natural colourants. 
• The playdough should be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 12 months – see expiry date at the bottom of your jar.
• For people 2+ years
