‘The Scribbles Crew: Fine-Motor Skills Emotions Playdough Mat’ has been designed to support children and young people with identifying how different activities or events make them feel. It enables them to realise that sometimes we feel multiple feelings at the same time.

This is perfect for practicing fine motor skills by pushing and pulling the dough.
