PLAY-DOH ~ I’ll supply the recipe…you bring the fun~

When I saw that September 16 was Nationa Play-Doh day I knew I had to post this recipe.

But, when our kids were growing up, every day was Play-Doh day:~D

It is nice to see the simple play-doh, invented in 1956 is still popular. And after selling almost 700 million pounds, their sales are still going strong.

A few weeks ago my three-year-old grandson was over. It was a rainy day so playing outside wasn’t an option.

“I can make some Play-doh!”

I pulled out the simple ingredients from my kitchen cupboard and let Warren help me measure out the ingredients and stir.

A few minutes of me stirring it while it cooked on the stovetop and BAM! Play-doh.I pulled out some of my kitchen gadgets and he was a happy camper.

And the best part? It was something he helped me make!
