San Diego, CA – Forming letters in kindergarten using dough or clay can be hard work for kids, but it was especially difficult for one little boy who cried whenever he touched the modeling product.  “It took us a week to discover that our son was sensitive to some of the ingredients being used in the product,” states mom and President of bluedominoes, inc. Debbie Lindgren. “I was amazed when I contacted the company and was informed that the ingredients were proprietary.  They would not answer my questions about coloring or chemicals being used in the product.  I didn’t realize that art supply products were not required to have Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS).  Thank goodness he had a diligent teacher who made this discovery and allowed us to bring in our own dough from home – there were no more tears.”

“Parents found out about our award-winning, eco-friendly Safe Art™ Activity Dough and began to request it at their schools,” says Linda Manaster, co-founder of bluedominoes, inc. “Our first product, Safe Art™ Activity Dough, is made from food grade ingredients, is free of the eight most common allergens such as gluten, wheat and soy, uses natural colors, is laboratory-tested to be free of heavy metals such as lead, mercury and arsenic and is free of chemicals such as bromine.  Having developed a safe universal product we provide parents and teachers with peace of mind.”

Being free of the eight most common allergens and using natural colors is what has attracted schools and hospitals nationwide to bluedominoes® Safe Art™ Activity Dough.  “When we launched our first product, the most frequently asked question was if our product contained soy.  Many parents indicated their children had multiple allergies, but being gluten-free often meant that soy was in the product.  The parents were delighted to know that we had consulted studies as well as talked with physicians who encouraged us not to use soy in our products, and we began to highlight the soy-free aspects of our Activity Dough.”
