Explanation

Play-Doh was invented by Joe McVicker in 1956. Originally created as a wallpaper cleaner by his company Kutol Products, McVicker repositioned it as a children's modeling toy when classroom use was discovered. It became one of the most popular creative toys in history. Silly Putty (1943), Etch-A-Sketch (1959), and Lite-Brite (1967) were invented by others at different times.
