A Moon Dough Review

Sometimes the stars align and things happen just the way you want them to.

My three-year-old, Bruiser, has been watching the new commercial for Moon Dough and begging for a Moon Dough playset of his own.

The next thing I know, Moon Dough sends me an e-mail, asking if I'd like to review one of its playsets!

Heck yeah!

Moon Dough, for those of you who don't know already is hypo-allergenic and wheat-free, soft and marshmallow-like, and it does not stick to or stain material. Because Moon Dough never dries out, kids can use it again and again.

I was more than ready to get my hands on some because Bruiser loves Play-Doh, and Play-Doh gets incredibly messy. Could Moon Dough be our answer? We were about to find out!

One thing I'm glad I did was take the time to read the instructions on how to properly use it in the molds. While Moon Dough is light and non-sticky, it does crumble and you really have to pack it into the molds to make it come out the way you want it to- so it does take some help from me and some monitoring to make sure the mess doesn't get too out of hand.

That said, Bruiser loves the feel of the Moon Dough, and he loves helping me make shapes for his barn. It is a great, tactile creative play experience for him and he has played with his Moon Dough barn over and over again.

The bottom line? Moon Dough is a lot of fun, but don't expect a no-mess experience (no matter what kind of "dough" or "doh" you're using) and read the instructions so that you know how it's supposed to work.
