New Year Playdough Maze
A playdough maze shaped like the current year, then blown through with a straw. Counts as both craft and breath control practice.
How to do it
- 1
Roll playdough into the digits of the current year.
- 2
Push the digits together and trim small tunnels where they meet so a pom-pom can pass through.
- 3
Hand the kid a straw and have them blow a pom-pom through the maze.
