Fun Star Wars Play-Doh Sets for Creative Play!

Play-Doh, the beloved modeling compound that has captivated generations, has its roots in an unexpected origin: wallpaper cleaner! In the 1930s, the compound was first created by Noah McVicker and his nephew Joe McVicker for the Kutol Products Company as a wallpaper cleaner. By the mid-1950s, with the decline in coal-based home heating and the rise of vinyl-based wallpapers, the demand for wallpaper cleaner reduced. Cleo McVicker, Joe's brother and a part of the Kutol team, discovered that teachers were using the non-toxic cleaner as a modeling clay in classrooms. Seizing this opportunity, they rebranded, added colors, and in 1956, introduced Play-Doh to schools and department stores. The squishy, vibrant compound soon became a household name, offering a fun and creative outlet for children (and adults) worldwide.

Since its inception, Play-Doh has inspired creative play in all that use it. With the following products, Play-Doh joins forces with Star Wars for some intergalactic fun. Check out these unique mash-ups.
