Play-Doh Octopus Playset

out of all the toys my daughters got for christmas, this has by far been their favorite! It has so many cool tools to use!

I think to push the playdoh out of the head is much easier than trying to push it out of the regular fun factory. It is a little harder to clean, but so far the playdoh doesn't stick inside, so it comes right out once I get it going.

This is definately going to be one of the gifts I give out for birthdays from now on!!! I highly recommend!!!!!

"Santa" gave this toy to my four year old son. He has been playing with it constantly since Christmas. We like the fact that it has different molds to create different fish, and especially how we can squeeze the play dough down through the octopus to make it come out the turtle on the other side. My son thinks that's hysterical.

It's a lot of fun to play with, and my three year old loves playing with it, but, MAN, is it hard to clean. Whoever designed the thing ought to be put in time out.

Basically, the play-doh is shoved down the top of the octopus and comes out at a right angle at the bottom. This works pretty well (but it's a little hard for the little one). When he's all done though, there is inevitably play-doh gets stuck in the bottom of the tube. The tube itself is too long to push the play-doh through with your finger, and the right angle makes it so that, even if you do force it down, you have to some how push it out the front. The weirdest thing is, there isn't a device (even the classic play-doh knife) that comes with it, that you can use to dig it out. And even using the classic knife is difficult. I use a combination of play-doh tools, with just a touch of cursing, and that seems to work.

So, buyer beware, it's fun, but tough to clean.

He does love the lobster scissors though, and carries them with him in his pocket all the time.

We recently purchased this toy for my 3 and 4 year olds. What a disappointment. After weeks of asking for this toy, we bought it only to find it so un-user friendly, my children gave up after 10 minutes with it. It's very difficult to push the playdoh far enough down to squish it out of the bottom and then when you do you have to find something small enough to dig out the rest of the playdoh since the plunger doesn't completely push it out. No attachment that comes with it is small enough to "dig out" the rest so a nearby pen or knife comes in handy. Boy, that's safe! Save your money and buy something else or just get the playdoh and have them use their imagination. You'll be less frustrated.
