Salt Free Playdough RecipePlaydough assists in the development of a child’s sense of touch and finger and hand control. When introducing playdough for the first time, encourage your child to use their hands to explore the feel and texture. Making the playdough together also serves as a great activity as itself and this playdough is ideal as it doesn’t contain salt and it doesn’t matter if they eat it!
