In class, we love using Play-Doh to practice making our letters and numbers. However, it seems to quickly dry out because lids are often not put on properly. If you have a young child or have worked with them before, you know that they go through crayons like CRAZY! I'm asking specifically for the 8 pack of Crayola Crayons because there are primary colors in them, making it easier for a child to know which is red instead of the red-pink one that the 24 pack has. I appreciate any and all help. I am a first-year teacher, so anything is beyond helpful!
