Intergenerational programs challenge separations of age and difference. Re-turning data of preschool children and care home residents playing with playdoh together during an intergenerational program, this paper uses Barad’s agential realism to expand who, and crucially what, is involved in reconciling differences between generations. Turning the playdoh episode over and over, the people and things in-between ‘young’ and ‘old,’ in the middle, but missing from my original analysis are brought to the surface. I term these missing middles and argue that (re)attending to excluded aspects of intergenerational inter/intra-action is made possible through a feminist new materialist lens
