Play-Doh tends to crumble and you end up vacuuming a lot of little dried up pieces. Modelling clay is usually oil based (the reason why it doesn't dry out, or crumble), so be careful about choosing the right surface for them to use the clay on. Modelling dough is a malleable material meant for tactile, exploratory play. A preferred sculptural material for young children, most doughs are nontoxic and made out of a flour-based mixture that is soft and easy for small hands to shape.
'Clay' refers to the binder in the plaster, just as lime, cement or gypsum refers to the binder in their respective plasters. Clay is therefore a better description than 'earth', as earth also contains aggregates and other materials which may be found in all types of plaster. It is harder and more impact-resistant than clay but that makes it more difficult to repair.
