Myplastijungle Modelling Dough
by Djeco
A first modelling dough activity with a friendly crocodile knife for little makers aged 18 months+.
The crocodile knife becomes the bit they ask for
Some days your little one may sit close while you keep the dough play simple. Other days, the crocodile knife becomes the main event, with careful little cuts followed by very firm decisions about the turtle. Without anyone really noticing, it becomes one of those activities that shows you how much they want to do by themselves.

Product overview
From squishing to choosing
Toddlers often start craft play by pressing, poking and feeling their way through it. Before long, they want to be the one in charge. This dough activity gives them a turtle friend to decorate and a crocodile knife that makes cutting feel doable. At first, it may be all about the feel of the dough. Soon, your child may be placing pieces with more care, choosing where each bit should go, and coming back because the turtle can be decorated their way.

Why this matters
That little bit of independence is often what makes a toddler want to try again.
Their turtle can look like theirs
