                                  Answer:
   
   If you are talking commercial playdough, the answer is no. Playdough
   contains chometz (products made from the 7 grains prohibited on
   Passover). An alternative solution to Playdough might be real clay or
   real modelling clay. You should read the ingredients to ensure that
   there are no chometz or chometz-derived ingredients.
   
   Note that, for traditional Jews, there would be a problem with real
   modelling clay during Shabbat, given the prohibitions on constructing
   things or creating (i.e, various forms of art).
