Arts and Crafts


Edible Playdough
This was our first project...actually a 2 day project. The first day I set out all the ingredients: peanut butter, honey, and powdered sugar. I put a little bit of each on this tray to let him feel the different textures and taste the different ingredients













Then I let him help mama pour and mix all the ingredients together .Clearly he thought that it was snack time and play time.










On day two of the playdough we (I) rolled the dough into balls and Colton took huge bites out of the balls. Then I should him how to flatten the dough and use cookie cutters to make animals and shapes.
Notice the mouth FULL of playdough
This can be a very messy project put it was a lot of fun. He had more fun eating it than playing with it. I look forward to trying it again in a few months when he is a little older

  2. The playdough turned out great! I'm going to have to try this recipe with Finn (and hope that he DOES actually he eat some)! I really like that you presented the different ingredients first so that he could experience the textures and tastes all on their own.
