What are some of your fondest childhood toys?  For all you parents with toddlers, I’m sure you can agree with me that one of our childhood favorites that never seemed to lose its popularity would have to be Play-Doh!  But, times are much better now, and for all you eco-conscious & green parents, we’re excited to share with you Mama K’s Aromatic Play Clay.

Kari Erickson-Valenzuela, aka Mama K, created her unique scented Play Clay for use with her own active three-year-old, Olimpia. Avoiding the artificial ingredients and cloying fruit and soda scents seen frequently marketed to children, she came up with a product that inspires focus and creates a calming atmosphere, all while encouraging creativity. Mama K’s Play Clay is a kid-safe clay with subtle aromatherapy oils to soothe the mind. Ingredients are basic and natural: they include certified gluten free flour, extra virgin olive oil, vegetable colorants and pure essential oils. Available in seven scents, including soothing lavender, relaxing chamomile and tension-easing bergamot.

They come in various colors and in lovely eco-friendly packaging, and their ingredients are 100% natural with ORGANIC oils.  Perfect for creative fun and to use as stress relievers for parents, Mama K’s Play Clay is also suitable for kids with Celiac and Autism Spectrum disorders.

Not for kids under 2 years old.
