The first one I would link to fine motor skills - physical development.

the second one with the playdough to mark making.

It sounds like you all had great fun! :D

Maybe these?

1.KUW - Exploration and investigation - 16 - 26 months - Sometimes focus their enquiries on particular features or processes.

2.PD - Using equipment and materials - 8 - 20 months - Enjoys the sensory experience of making marks in damp sand, paste or paint.

There's something about filling and emptying containers, I think in PSRN for the first one and also using one-handed tools for the second one.
