Play-Doh Smash Game


Roll the dice.  How many Play-Doh circles can you roll and count?  LM and I had fun with this simple counting activity, but then he started to smash the circles.  This is how the game "Smash" was born. 
    
Directions: 
Shape small spheres with your child.
Put them in the center of the playing area.
Roll the die.
How many spheres do you get to smash? Using a play hammer or a hand, have fun smashing the spheres as you count? Play for fun or competition to see who can smash the most spheres? 

Other Play-Doh Ideas:

Giant list of printable, Play-Doh Mats to create with.
Play-Doh Store- Create candies or food and play store.  Use play money to teach math concepts.
Play-Doh Cavity Activity- Teaching about teeth and the letter Tt
