Of course, I have jumped on the Pinterest bandwagon. The problem is, I see all these things I'd like to make/try/cook, but never find the time to do it. Well, we had a rainy weekend a couple of weeks ago and being cooped up in the house is not something that my busy-body kids enjoy. On Saturday, we spent a couple of hours playing at the germ-infested mall play area. On Sunday, I pulled out the instructions for my very first Pinterest-inspired project: homemade play dough.
We waited until the little ones were napping, then Big Sis and I got started.
These are all the ingredients; things I already had in my kitchen. Even better!
Big Sis chose to make a batch of purple first. She likes to pour in the ingredients and stir for me. She also learned that mixing red and blue together makes purple---educational, too!
This is the finished product above. Below, is our second batch--pink, of course.
Each recipe made a very big portion, and the kids played with it all afternoon. It kept the kids busy and still, which was nice. I did have some clean up when they finished, but that's normal for us. The post where I found the recipe is HERE if you want to check it out. I give our first Pinterest project a big thumbs up!
Very fun! We may have to make a new batch today!
