The castle walls and towers can be built with green Play-Doh compound. Mold a large amount of green Play-Doh compound into a cube shape. Roll some more green Play-Doh compound into a tall cylinder and another into a smaller cylinder. Roll two pieces of blue Play-Doh compound into cone shapes for the spires.

Make some small cubes out of green Play-Doh compound for use as battlements. The Purple Play-Doh compound makes great windows and a door that really stands out, so mold some into a small rectangle for a door and squares for windows. Use pink Play-Doh cans to make flags for spires. Place the two green cylinders on either side of the large cube, and the blue cones on top to make spires.
