what does Play-Doh have to do with Plato?

Plato was a classical Greek philosopher. He thought that everything had an ideal form, and physical representations of the ideal form were actually poor representations. Similar to Plato's philosophy, Play-Doh   is used to mold images and figures with the dough. Although, the figures created with the dough are rarely an accurate representation of the ideal figure in the molder's mind. Play-Doh is ultimately Plato's philosophy in a tangible form.
