The data was analysed using a two -way ANOVA with significance level of 5%. The results showed that (1) there was a significant effect of the playdough games and puzzles on fine motor skills with P < 0.05, (2) there was a significant effect of playdough and puzzles on logical-mathematical intelligence with P < 0.05, and (3) playdough had more influence on fine motor skills while puzzles had more influence on logical-mathematical intelligence with P < 0.05. it was concluded that playdough and puzzles both influenced the improvement of fine motor skills and logical-mathematical intelligence but playdough had a greater influence on fine motor skills while puzzles had a greater influence on logical-mathematical intelligence.
