Thomas gave the wooden rolling pin a great big bash on the play dough table, then banged a wooden stool. We tried again this time using the rolling pin to roll over the top of the dough. With my hands over Thomas' I demonstrated moving the rolling pin back and forth to flatten out the dough. I said 'rolling, rolling', Thomas smiled and laughed at this then copied my action using the rolling pin over the dough. He repeated this action with his new found tool throughout the morning.
