Watch what happens!

You can use a variety of household utensils to play with the play dough. We have many cookie cutters, plastic cutlery, potato mashers and more to manipulate the play dough.
Use your imagination and your children’s imaginations to think of creative ways to play with your play dough.
Music is an important part of Inspiring Minds; we love to sing. Many of our staff make up songs as we go through the day. Below is one we didn’t make up. It is the song we sing before lunch is served.
The Hungry Hungry Song
Hungry, hungry I’m so hungry
Table, table here I come!
I could eat a moose goose burger,
Fifteen pickles and a purple plum
Oysters, noodles, strawberry strudel
French fries, fish sticks, one red beet
Lamb chops, lamb chops, huckleberry mish-mash
All the things I like to eat.
