Play dough is always a fun playtime activity. We have very found memories of our two oldest making figure after figure out of play dough when they were younger a lot of them what looked like cats and hearts. The baby is getting older and it’s time for us to start practicing making homemade made play dough. Now I like store bought play dough just as much as the next parents does but there something about whipping together a batch of play dough with the kids on a cold rainy or snowy evening that gives me that warm and fuzzy. It’s a good way to bond with the family and having something to do other than watching shows or playing on the internet when it’s to cold to go outside.
