Valentine’s Day Playdough Invitation to Play

Setting up a Valentine’s themed playdough activity is quick and easy.

Grab your favourite playdough, whether that is homemade (I love this easy microwave playdough recipe) or shop bought, in some fun colours. We chose pink, purple and red.

You can also collect some loose parts and other items to go with the Valentine’s theme.

We used:

  • pony beads
  • mini craft sticks
  • pipe cleaners
  • cut up straws
  • googly eyes
  • mini cupcake liners

You could also use buttons, pom poms, glass gems, foam hearts, sequins or anything else that takes your fancy!

There is a heart to decorate, a bouquet that needs some flowers, some chocolates to decorate, and a love bug to decorate.

Will your love bug have spots or stripes?
