I think many children will enjoy being able to bring their creations to life in the dark. LOL.įrom a parent’s standpoint I think Lumi Dough is a fun idea. They just like to look at the globs of dough glow. My kids like to keep the colors separate. Just note that once they are mixed/mashed up they can’t be undone. You can combine more than one color to create new colors too. If you opt to do that you must use the included banking sheet so that Lumi Dough does not mark up your pan. You can bake Lumi Dough so that whatever is designed holds it’s shape forever. Here is the official product video that shows you the various ways Lumi Dough can be used and enjoyed. They can also make their name out of the dough that will light up with then lights go out. Your child can create stars to hang on the wall that glow at night. We keep the dough on the mat just to be on safe side. There is a possibility it could stain or leave a mark so make note of that before sticking it on to things. Lumi Dough has an adhesiveness to it so that it can stick on to things like the wall, furniture, books, toys and anything else you can think of.

And it does! Here are two examples (a star and a smiley face). After I opened the package and saw it I knew it would glow. I was thinking it was more like Play Doh. To be honest I didn’t really think Lumi Dough would glow in the dark that well when I first heard about it. Because it is reusable, children can shape and remodel over and over again for endless fun, whether it’s day or night.

Featuring all of the best attributes of traditional moldable dough, Lumi Dough stretches like rubber and molds like dough. Lumi Dough gives children of all ages a fun and creative way to unleash their creativity, while strengthening vital fine motor skills and enhancing tactile perception. You can use regular cookie cutters with Lumi Dough too or other items like plastic knives, rolling pins, scissors and of course your bare hands.Įarly childhood education experts agree that tactile play can be a tremendous learning experience for children by stimulating their senses, fostering hand-eye coordination, sparking their imaginations and more. The star cut outs come in different sizes. It’s great for children to create their designs on so that the Lumi Dough doesn’t get all over your furniture or table top. The play mat is a laminated piece of cardstock. It’s more for adding “accents” to your designs like noses and eyes. The black dough doesn’t glow in the dark. If you purchase Lumi Dough from its official website you also get a bonus black dough, play mat, non-stick baking sheet and star shaped cut outs. Lumi Dough comes with five different colors – Clear, Pink, Green, Purple and Blue. I received a set of Lumi Dough to review.

In addition Lumi Dough doesn’t dry out or crack and your child can reuse it and enjoy it over and over again. It’s made from a special luminous antibacterial and non-toxic silicon material. Lumi Dough is a bit different than most “dough-like” toys because it glows in the dark. It has a texture more like Silly Putty than Play Doh. Lumi Dough is a glow-in-the-dark, moldable dough that can be stretched, bent and shaped into anything a child can imagine. If you have such a box for your child (or grandchild) I have a fun toy that you should consider adding to the box. I also kept things like Play Doh and Silly Putty in the box from time to time too. Inside I kept craft supplies, coloring books, crayons and inexpensive toys (like the kind you find at the Dollar stores). I jokingly referred to it as the “Box of Fun”.

When my kids were younger I used to like to keep a few activities on hand to keep them amused and occupied on rainy days, days when it’s too hot and humid to be outside, or during winter storms.
