We used this recipe and made some homemade playdough today! Nathan had never played with playdough, so I was a little apprehensive that he'd have trouble understanding that it wasn't food, but he did great and had a lot of fun with it! :)
Do your kiddos like playdough? Have you ever made playdough?

i love his cheeks!!
What a cutie, those are some adorable cheeks! He looks like he is enjoying that Playdough!
Thanks FootPrints and Chelcie! He did really, really enjoy it... he was so serious and focused about it, though, I couldn't get a shot of him smiling! Playdough is serious business, I guess... ;)
Hi, yes.. my son loves playdough too but what he plays with is play-doh. never made one of our own since a family friend gave him a set (with a shape maker) for his 2nd birthday.
Thanks for sharing the recipe :)
We've gone through several batches of playdough already. It's such a fun thing, but oh so messy!!
It can be a real lifesaver on rainy days though!
I make my own too. It's so easy, I can't imagine actually buying the stuff!
By the way, what program do you use to make your adorable headers?
Hi, Shenski! How fun - I think I need to look around for some play dough accessory toys... I remember a "spaghetti" maker a friend had when I was little - so fun! :)
Peachtree - I think it's great for those hot hot afternoons, too, when it is just too hot to run around outside. I just use paintbrush and play around with it. :) It isn't too hard... but if you wanted me to play around and make you one you can send me the pictures you'd like in an email and I could probably make one for you... might take me a few weeks, but I find it relaxing when I do have time to play around with it! ;) (nj1712(at)gmail(dot)com)
playdough is the bestest times infinity.
it's a good day when i end up with it beneath my fingernails. i love the classic storebought brand... but making it has it's appeal. I would say saveup for some fun "tools" they have very reasonable sets. there's one that MissO loves that has scissors. which i think a genius way to introduce cutting skills with. how to hold and operate them. (of course everything has it's place. gives a chance to teach this)
she also loves any sort of imprinting tools. which you can find around the house.
Abi ~ I love the idea of playdough scissors! And we'll have to look around for things to imprint with. I love seeing your fun playdough pictures, so I knew we needed to try some and see if Nathan liked it. :)
I enjoy making play doh with my fellows too. It keeps them busy forever. We'll choose a theme, like things you'd find in the ocean, and they'll make fish and shells and seaweed all day.
He is daring! I love those little cheeks! Sweet!
Lula Lola - a theme sounds so fun- we'll have to try that! :) And thanks... :)
