Sensory Dough Tool Set, 5 pcs
What makes this product special
Toys for learning through play
Play is essential for children’s learning, well-being, and development. Through play, children learn about themselves and the world around them.
Play helps children:
• stay curious
• focus and become absorbed in what they're doing
• take on age-appropriate challenges
• build confidence
We believe children learn best by doing things for themselves:
• by making mistakes
• by getting messy
• by falling down and getting back up again
Resilience, confidence, and courage grow through experience, one small step at a time.
That's why we carefully choose toys that encourage independence, imagination, movement, and social skills — offering just the right balance of support, freedom, and opportunities to grow.
Carefully selected toys
We carefully handpick every toy from the vast world of toys available today. The only toys that make it into our range are ones we'd be happy to give our own children.
Every toy at ToyAcademy should:
• support learning through play
• be made from durable, high-quality materials
• be safe and enjoyable for children to play with

What makes this product special
Squishing, pulling, patting, squeezing, and stretching with your hands magically sharpens your child’s concentration, even though it is really a form of distraction. For example, when you need to sit still and pay attention to a fairy tale, it’s great to knead and play with various kinds of playdough, clay, or sensory slime while listening.
Playdough lets your bigger child make anything from three-headed aliens to princesses and knights and bring their funniest ideas to life. For small children, playdough is mostly about the sensory experience.
We carry playdough of many different colours and types and different hardness levels. Firmer playdough stimulates your child’s proprioception because it offers more resistance when played with. For example, firm playdough is great for making stop motion movies, because the shape holds well.
It’s a quiet activity that can help your child sit still for just 5 more minutes - or help them cope with long train or car rides without wiggling around in their seat. Particularly, for children who experience motor restlessness, playing with something that stimulates their hands, proprioception, imagination, and fine motor skills while sitting still can bring a sense of calm.
Oil-based playdough stays soft for several years. You can soften water-based playdough by adding in a bit of water.
Naturally, all the different types of playdough, sensory slime, and modelling clay we sell at ToyAcademy are CE-marked and approved in accordance with current toy safety regulations - just like all our other products.
The activity supports skill development and is wonderful for your child's well-being:
- Gives your child's fine motor skills a wonderful workout.
- Benefits hand-eye coordination, a skill we rely on for instance when we catch, throw, or kick the ball that comes flying towards us in PE class, when we cut a straight line line with a pair of scissors, or when we need to pour a glass of water without spilling and making a mess.
