My son experienced playdough for the first time about a month ago in his little Nursery class at Church. A few weeks ago I decided to make some. I googled and found this great recipe! In the comments people were saying it only lasts for a week or so, then it becomes too sticky, but I have had mine for a month now and it is still in perfect shape, just follow the directions carefully and it will work.
A couple months ago I went to a craft fair and they had some cute little kid aprons with lots of pockets for cooking tools. I made one tonight using the leg of an old pair of jeans I had that had a hole in the knee. Not the greatest apron, I
was kinda' winging it..I need a pattern before I make any more, but it works! And my son will keep his clothes clean! I love recycling!Then I found this cute little baking set in the dollar bins at Target..it was $2.50, but sooo cute and the kids thought it was great. It comes with a rolling pin, spoon, a bunch of cookie cutters that are perfect for little kids -and wire whisk (which doesn't work too well for play dough, but the rest of it does!) My son and his little friends have had fun playing with it.
My kids got aprons similar to that one a couple of years ago for a Christmas present and they have absolutely LOVED them, and so have I. It's so fun to see them pull out their aprons and get messy with me in the kitchen!
ReplyDeleteAprons are the best. It seems like a make new ones every year for Christmas. I love how they work. I have a great playdough recipe for edible playdough. My kids like that one. I like all the fun colors that you made. It looks so enticing.
ReplyDeleteMy sister just bought that set at Target! And she bought it to use for playdough!
