Play-Doh Sets for Girls

Plasticine is an excellent material for children's creativity, but it has one significant drawback: most children have to study for a long time in order to make something sensible and suitable for games out of it, and some have no talent for this activity at all, so modeling is so stops at the level of creating primitive semblances of toys.

At the same time, the special flexibility of this material literally pushes you to come up with ways to create really chic things out of it, so that leading manufacturers in the industry, such as the Play Doh brand, release complete play sets that bring regular sets for sculpting to the state of a complex and fascinating toy with its believability.

Today we will take a closer look at sets for girls.

The children's set from this manufacturer is usually dedicated to a topic - either neutral or designed for one of the two sexes.

What it is?

Unlike most other sets and their manufacturers, Play Doh products differ in a peculiar concept - plasticine is used here not as the main part of the game, but only as an addition that makes the game more fun. The mass for modeling produced by this company is traditionally different increased softness and elasticity, which allows you to fully use a variety of molds to quickly give the product the necessary, and most importantly, believable outlines.

However, the company is not limited to the most banal forms - it releases them in the form of full-fledged toys that could be used in a certain way without plasticine at all, but thanks to this plastic mass, they acquire the ability to visually change. In practice, this means that the child has the opportunity to carry out various experiments by changing the outer shell of the toys included in the set.

Buying one plasticine toy parents actually give the girl a lot of toys at once, and a certain element of creativity, which is still present, makes the child completely happy.

Although each set, in addition to toy molds, also includes a certain (usually small) number of plasticine colors, the provided palette is not limited. It is enough to use soft plasticine of the same company of a similar consistency, bought in ordinary sculpting kits - there will probably be more colors there.

Safety concerns

Play Doh sets for girls, like all other products of the brand, are recommended for children aged 3 years and older. At the same time, the manufacturer pays great attention to the environmental safety of its products - perhaps this is the only company that sincerely tries do not use synthetic materials in their masses for modeling... The plasticine included in the kits is completely natural and in its own way even suitable for eating, but still it is usually salted very strongly so that the kids do not use the substance for other purposes.

Despite the special brightness of the tones, only natural dyes are used when coloring the mixture.

In fact, given the safety of the masses, the theoretical use of kits is acceptable for girls and young people, but then it is not just the presence of parents that is necessary, but their careful control. For more attractiveness, plasticine slightly aromatized, which may arouse particular interest on the part of the child, and although the mass does not contain harmful additives and is elastic enough to be swallowed, even the taste itself can be very upsetting for a baby.

In addition, the kits still contain a significant amount of plastic parts, and although their design has been carefully thought out in order to exclude the possibility of separating small parts, in no case should we forget that children are ready to break literally anything and will gladly pull into their mouths everything that will fit there and look bright enough.

Cooking food

Play Doh's assortment includes dozens of different sets, but still the most popular are those in which the meaning of the game involves making toy food. By the way, there are at least a couple of dozen such sets, and their concepts, of course, differ. Of course, this topic is so popular for a reason, but also because it can be close to boys too, but girls usually enjoy such gifts more.

Since the main recipients of these kits are children, it is quite obvious that most of the "prepared" food is sweets. In the top, for example, ice cream, the "production" of which, depending on the generosity of parents, can be organized at the level of "Mini ice cream set" to full "Ice Cream Castle"... The sets consist of special molds that allow you to squeeze out ice cream in certain shapes and make decorations in the form of cherries and other pleasant bonuses.

But the child's play fantasy is not enough for ice cream alone - among other sets for making sweets you can find "Cake Factory", "Cookie Shop", "Festive Cake", "Double desserts", "Carnival of sweets" and much more.

The little mistress will now definitely never be ashamed of her doll - she will always find something to offer other dolls-guests for tea.

However, even children understand that it is impossible to eat sweets alone, therefore there is also such a set as "Pizza"... A child probably would never have been able to sculpt such a complex dish by hand, but another thing is to repeat this trick with a set that already includes everything you need, including special molds for creating mushrooms and shrimps, as well as a special cheese press.

To make the game more believable, the set includes many related accessories such as a board, a plate, cutlery, and even a pizza delivery box. The result looks so appetizing that the child may very soon ask his mother to teach him how to cook this from real products.

Professions

The creation of food, of course, could also be attributed here, but that topic is represented by the brand so widely that we have taken it into a separate subsection, and here we will already consider those sets that relate to activities that are not related to the culinary arts.

According to the Russian website of the manufacturer, among all game sets according to the results of 2017, the most popular is the set called "Crazy Hairstyles", which is made in a professional theme, close to hairdressers and stylists. Probably, many mothers in their lives have come across the fact that a child, observing a change in people's hairstyles, periodically tries to cut a doll, or, even worse, himself. Naturally, the hair of the toy will not grow back, and the girl's curls, although they will grow back, will probably not look very beautiful until that moment. The described set was created precisely for to channel children's energy in the right direction.

The molds here are made in the form of little men without hair - their heads seem to be bald, covered with many small holes. The figurine is filled with plasticine from the inside, and when pressed in a certain place, the plasticine begins to crawl out of the holes, forming a "hairdo". Such hair can be cut or styled using other special shapes, the kit includes toy hairdressing tools and even a chair.

Naturally, such figures can be cut at least a hundred times a day without the slightest harm to their image!

For those who like the medical profession, a set called "Doctor Plyusheva". It allows you to successfully sculpt and then heal your own created characters. The set includes special molds for modeling, but in fact there is a lot of plasticine, so the child is not limited to the options offered by the manufacturer. The set includes a plastic stethoscope and a syringe, the latter being suitable for both toy injections and more sophisticated sculpting.

Princesses and female beauty

Well, what about without the most beloved theme, which makes girls girls? Of course, the typical female theme was not covered by the side, and the relatively small variety of the corresponding sets and their low popularity are caused only by the fact that the manufacturer on his site made a rating without breaking down by gender. This topic is interesting exclusively for girls, while all of the above is at least theoretically able to attract the attention of boys as well.

Of the sets of this type, the most popular is "Boutique for princesses"... If you still think that doll dresses must necessarily be made of fabric, and each one needs to be bought specially, forget about it - now dresses can be made in huge quantities every day, independently developing an unusual and attractive design for each. This set includes two princess figurines taken from the famous Disney cartoons - the creators chose Rapunzel and Belle.

The boutique itself is a revolving catwalk that allows others to show how beautiful the princess has become after her mistress created an outfit for her. All other accessories are various devices that allow you to "dress" a little doll in a dress made of plasticine, and the combination of accessories in various combinations will make the choice of clothes really wide.

Critics point out that this set is very useful for the development of the girl, because it teaches her to dress beautifully and elegantly, and even a small variety of plasticine (only 4 jars) does not interfere with this.

Play Doh did not forget about the girls' great love for ponies. For example, a game set "Dressing table Rarity" tied to the plot of the animated series called "Friendship is the miracle". It allows you to recreate the main character of the cartoon from plasticine. Even more possibilities are offered by the set "Create a Favorite Pony" where the molds are presented in a much greater variety.

Of the cheap, but also very popular sets, it is worth highlighting a product called "Minnie Mouse". Although the times of Mickey Mouse, it would seem, are long gone, his image is still very recognizable, and the girls, of course, even more like the image of his permanent girlfriend, who can be easily fashioned thanks to the tools and molds included in this set.
