A Children’s ToyMany people dream of becoming rich by selling a new product. However, it is

often difficult to start and run a new business. Even with good ideas and hard work,many products and businesses fail. One company that failed many times before itbecame a success was Kutol the maker of a popular children’s toy calledPlay-Doh.*

It started in 1933, when Kutol began having trouble selling its soap. CleoMcVicker, Kutol’s president, needed to find a new way to make money. He heardthat the heaters that people used in their homes made their walls dirty. Therefore,many people needed wallpaper cleaner to wipe their walls clean. Cleo’s brother,Noah McVicker, found a way to make wallpaper cleaner. The company startedselling the wallpaper cleaner to grocery stores. With its new product, Kutol beganmaking money again.

However, in the 1950s, people began using new types of heaters that did notmake the walls dirty. As a result, people stopped buying wallpaper cleaner, andKutol was in trouble again. Luckily, the new president, Joe McVicker, heard thatthe wallpaper cleaner had a different use. Some teachers used it in their art classesbecause it was easy and fun for children to play with. Kutol added some colors toits wallpaper cleaner and started to sell it as a children’s toy, Play-Doh.

At first, Kutol sold Play-Doh to schools and department stores in the UnitedStates. Then, in 1957, a character on a popular children’s TV show began to playwith Play-Doh. As a result, it became very popular in the United States andEurope. In 1965, Kutol sold Play-Doh to a large American toy company, andtoday, over 95 million cans of Play-Doh are sold every year. The story of Play-Dohshows that people should not give up when they have a problem. Instead, they mustkeep trying.
