It comes in a blue color (from the blueberry scent line) and is soft, easy to shape, and won't dry out quickly when stored in the resealable tub. Made in the USA with food-grade ingredients, it contains wheat but no dairy, eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, gelatin, or latex. Conforms to ASTM-D4236 safety standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat makes this blue dough different from standard play dough?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe dough is infused with a fruity blueberry scent that adds a sensory layer to play. Unlike many plain play clays, this one stays soft and pliable without crumbling or cracking. It's stretchy and easy to roll, press, sculpt, or stamp right out of the tub. The texture holds up for mixed-media art projects and texture play, and it won't require rehydrating between uses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIs this play dough safe for children with allergies?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eHygloss formulated this dough with food-grade ingredients and deliberately excluded common allergens: no dairy, eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, gelatin, or latex. However, it does contain wheat (gluten). This makes it suitable for many children with food allergies but not for those with celiac disease or wheat sensitivity. Always check with a healthcare provider for individual needs. The dough is recommended for ages 3 and up and meets ASTM-D4236 for art materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow does this dough help build hand strength and motor skills?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlaying with dough naturally involves squishing, punching, rolling, and molding actions that strengthen hand and finger muscles. These movements boost coordination and focus, which is why teachers and therapists often use dough in classrooms and therapy sessions. Shaping letters, following instructions, or free-form sculpting all contribute to fine motor development and creative expression.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow to keep the dough fresh and reusable?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe dough comes in a resealable tub. When sealed properly after each use, it stays fresh for weeks without drying out. The soft texture remains smooth and workable – no crumbling, no cracks, and no need to add water. Simply store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3 pounds (1.36 kg)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlue\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDough (food-grade, contains wheat)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAge Range\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3 years and up\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHygloss\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScent\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlueberry (fruity)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecial Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNon-Toxic, Scented, Resealable Tub\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Items\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 tub\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon questions about this blue scented dough\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the dough contain any latex or gelatin?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo, the ingredient list explicitly excludes gelatin and latex.
