No childhood is complete without getting their finger nails strained with Play-Doh. Still remembering all those fun moulding and pinching animals, buildings, and imaginary friends out of those colourful cans, but after a few decades of innovation, kids nowadays are able to create more role-playing and storytelling with their new unique playsets.
This time, we bring you a new set of Play-Doh launched in July; the review of Play-Doh Town Firehouse in celebration of it’s 60th Anniversary Plus 2 Sets of Play-Doh Cake Party for giveaways so if you haven’t started your child in this, let’s give you a plenty of reasons to do so!
Do You Know?
PLAY-DOH is a fun and engaging compound that can enhance the learning aptitude of your child / children? Kids as young as 2 YEARS OLD can play with PLAY-DOH? Since 1956, the PLAY-DOH brand has encouraged kids to explore what’s possible. Originally developed as a wallpaper cleaner, PLAY-DOH compound is now the #1 reusable modeling compound, with over 100 million cans produced each year!
This year, PLAY-DOH has developed a range of products that allows children to hop on the bandwagon of exercising their imagination in creative play and promotes critical thinking, communication, collaboration, and creativity in a fun, learning environment.
New Launches in July!
New launches include the Cake & Cupcakes set, Shape & Learn range and the Town range ( Town Firehouse, Town Fire Truck, Town Ice Cream Truck and Town Pet Store) are sold in major toys’ departmental stores (BHG, Metro, Isetan, OG) and Toys ‘R’ Us in Singapore.
TOWN FIREHOUSE
Create an emergency fire scene with the stackable PLAY-DOH cans, and help the firefighter prepare by designing a wild hairstyle for him and putting on his hat after that! Help him to battle the flames and put the fire out with the water canon extruder, or make a hose with the fire hydrant, or simply chop the flames out with the firefighter’s axe!
Don’t forget to take his dog out for a walk before it faces its own emergency. This product can be enjoyed for children aged 3 years & above. It’s available for sale at a retail price of SGD49.90.
Verdict: 
Assembly of the Town Firehouse was easy, we need only set up the Firehouse set. The rest of the parts such as water cannon extruder, hydrant extruder, puppy extruder, flame stamper, and firehouse itself have molds to create Wacky and Colorful Characters with 4 cans of Play-Doh modeling compound.
Kids can use the fire stamper to create fire scenes, before filling up the water cannon and hydrant with more Play-Doh to save the day. The cannon and hydrant provide two fun ways for kids to create water: The cannon shoots out the dough as a water spray, while the hydrant provides a steady stream.
Kids can also create small animals from the roof stamp, add little ducks, squirrels, puppies, rabbits, and turtles around the fire scene. The included Play-Doh cans are building-themed, so the outside of the can resembles the outside of a building.
Remember to take the puppy for a walk, or else the puppy has a Play-Doh accident inside the firehouse.
soft modeling compound is super irresistible to our little one!

CAKE SET
Make the most outrageous pretend cakes imaginable for any occasion. Shape all kinds of cakes in the oven or with the cutters. Use the decorating tool to top it all off with swirly make-believe frosting. For even more festive fun, this creative bakeshop comes with Confetti compound! When they’re ready, the pretend cake masterpieces can sit on display in the cake dome, or Play-Doh bakers can present them to friends using the plates and utensils.
Creativity never looked so sweet! Suitable for 3 years old and above, and compound are not to be eaten. Selling at a retail price worth S$39.90.
Verdict: 
The Cake Party set was an instant hit for our little one as the molds and stamps are larger to hold and easier to shape, decorate and display. The unassembled playset consists of 5 cutters, decorating tool, 2 plates, spatula, fork, knife, 3 cans of Play-Doh Confetti compound, and 2 cans of Play-Doh Brand Modeling Compound.
Our little reviewer enjoyed creating the make-believe frosting for the cake, as it can be made into a candle or the lining for the cake. 
Create as much base for the cake as possible, there are butterfly stamps, mini pancake, star, Gingerman and tiny macaroon stamps with guided handles for the small hands! To decorate, shape your modeling compound into the decorating stamps – we made flowers, teddy bears, seashells, butterfly bows, heart shapes, and also birthday candles.
If your kid owns most of the Play-Doh colors, the new Play-Doh Confetti compound will make cake making even more unique and fun!
Unleash your children’s creativity with this Cake Party Set! Create & Celebrate!
GOOD TO KNOW:
- Play-Doh compound may be recyclable after each use, but it also dries up quite easily (maybe 3 or more times of usage) so alway put compound back in container after play.
- Molds may be difficult to remove from the floor tiles so we advice to always use a plastic board while playing with the compound. (just liked what we did, we used a plastic acrylic board and it was easy to clean after.)
- Parents guidance is needed and advisable as the compound of the Play-Doh are not intended to be eaten.
- May use a non-blunt plastic knife (as seen below) or stick to remove compound tucked deep into some of the molds/stamps or to even cut out shapes. Make sure it’s safe for kids before use.
