There are lots of recipes for homemade playdough out there, some that are edible even. I'm avoiding the edible recipes, even though they look fun, because I don't want her to get confused and think playdough is for eating.
I used Erika's easy less than 10 minute recipe from Musings of a Stay at Home Mom. (though I didn't use gel paste food coloring so the color was a bit muted) It cost about $13 for all the ingredients, but it will make lots of batches of playdough.
I handed her a lump or two and let her explore.
And that she did. She promptly put some in her mouth. Then took it out to look at what she just tasted.
And decided it wasn't worth trying that again.
It kept her attention for a good half an hour! Definitely a hit in my book!

She looks SO excited about it! Adorable! It's funny how kids always insist on tasting playdough.

Haha! She might prefer the playdough made with KoolAid! ;)
Adorable pictures!
We make stuff like that still....and my kids are teens!! lol - they love it.
The second picture is funny. I love that look of curiosity and regret (with maybe some insight gained).
That looks like fun and she seems to be loving it!!
Very fun!
