Looking for a creative game to pop underneath the Christmas tree? Check out Play-Doh Smashed Potatoes.

The much-loved Mr Potato Head is given a new lease of life in this ingenious board game aimed at children aged 5 and up.
When the chips are down, can you step up to the challenge and rescue your spud from a fate worse than mashing?
Play-Doh Smashed Potatoes is a race against time to save spuds from the crazy kitchen. Create a potato using the Play-Doh modelling compound and molds, spin the spinner and take your potato on a nail-biting trip across the kitchen.
The aim of the game is to dodge the dreaded mash machines scissor slicer, slip past the French fryer, and avoid the crinkle cutter and lethal chip chopper! If you do happen to land in one of the machines it’s not necessarily game over. In a nice little twist, your potato only gets squished or chopped if another player spins and gets the same symbol.
The first player to guide their potato to the finish line and to the safety of the farm wins the game.
