*Willem LOVES playdoh and plays with it alot
*Adi is wanting to play with playdoh, and I catch her eating it from time to time (if she's gonna get some in her mouth, I'd rather it be chemical free)
*Playdoh isn't cheap....and who doesn't like to save money?
*Willem loves to help bake & cook, so I figured he would love to make something that he could actually play with.
Seeing that I'd never done this before, I picked a recipe online, suprisingly that I could make with things I had in my pantry!
The recipe was pretty simple, easy to follow, and quick! And the result was impressive! It's not perfect...the only thing I would like to change is the grainy texture, and the fact that they reccommend storing in the fridge. The site I found this recipe on had several recipes, so I may try another next time!
This guy sure loves it! Especially since it makes so much...not just a little can full!
Here's the recipe, in case you're interested!

Place all of the ingredients in a medium size pan. Stir well, then cook over medium heat until the dough thickens. Keps best in the fridge in a plastic container!
I'd love to hear your favorite dough recipe...I think I'll try a non-cooked one next time to compare!
