[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 387453, member: 1991"] difficult child 3 was given a stress ball by his school. We also sometimes make fresh pasta (whole egg, plain flour and a pinch of salt) which gives him a chance to squeeze dough. He also helps me by cranking the handle on the rollers. Bread dough is good, but trickier. Best of all, and we've done it since he was a toddler, is making potato gnocchi. It's really good for kids because they get to roll out a 'snake' of dough, then cut it in thumbnail lengths. Press each dumpling gently with a fork, then roll off the fork. It's been prescribed as therapy for difficult child 3, the Occupational Therapist (OT) was so impressed by it. You use what you've got. The play doh sounds like it worked really well! Marg [/QUOTE]
