Making Play Dough

Little Man and I finally tried making play dough.  It was so easy and fun, we should have done this a long time ago!  We did a stove top method because I've read that it will last longer.  When it was cool enough to knead, I let him go at it.  His very favorite part of the process was shaking glitter onto the dough and kneading it in.  He sat at the table for over an hour and did not want to stop when it was time to get C at school.

It was so much fun we made a pink batch when C got home from school.  She has always loved glitter but I don't love the mess.  Glitter on play dough is fantastic because it doesn't fly all over the place.

We used tools from the kitchen and some plastic scissors that don't cut paper, but are great for play dough and they played for another hour.

This was so much fun we are going to do it again at the toddler play group in a few weeks.
