Talan had been behaving really well, so I told him that for a treat we would make some play dough. He was so excited and couldn't wait to get started. We gathered all the ingredients and found a recipe.
Of course Lincoln didn't want to miss out on the fun. We carefully measured the flour, salt, cream of tarted, water and oil.
Once it was all mixed together we had to heat it up and stir it until it was Play dough consistency.
We had a little accident but the boys were willing to help clean the mess up. What good little helpers.
Once the dough was cooked it was time to add the coloring. We added a few drops of color and then we kneaded it until it was the color we wanted it.
Once the dough was done Talan asked me when we were going to eat it. I looked at him funny and said we aren't going to eat it. He responded with "I thought you said this was my treat?" I told him it was his treat for being so good. He said " I thought we were making Play dough ice cream, because play dough is not a treat."
Note to self: Treat is something you can eat!!
That is best play dough recipe ever and the only one I would let my kids play with. I still make it for my grand kids. I can see Talan's confusion especially since you "cooked" it. Too funny!
ReplyDeleteToo funny! It looks good enough to eat.
