Doh!
This is a question that has been troubling frustrated parents for years. How do I get Play-Doh out of my carpet?
We should have just asked Yahoo! (I didn't even know you could ask Yahoo! You with think with all the time I spend on the internet I would have run across this before, but nope.)
Yahoo! asked Hasbro who makes Play-Doh. Hasbro says to let the Plah-Doh dry and then use a stiff brush to break it up. After it is all broken up, just use a dust buster or vacuum it right up.
Play-Doh also just introduced a pick up stick tool that I could only find sold with their Creativity Cetner
.
Or you can just do what I did. Pull the carpet up. It peels right off of hardwood, or worst case scenario I use a damp rag.
My kids love Play-Doh, but they make a huge mess every single time. Espeically the boy. Then again, Hasbro says that Play-Doh is for children 36 months and up, and my kids are only 2 1/2.
Now I am going to go see if Yahoo! has any secrets about getting cat vomit out of my carpet. I figure it can't hurt to at least try.
