We made play dough today. It was my first time and was so much fun- and easy too! Can you believe that I didn’t remember to take pictures of it?! What was I thinking?! Oh well. Here is the recipe. I had to put in more water because it was too dry. And I also didn’t add colors- because I didn’t want to fight dyed hands for weeks, plus all the colors jumble together right? Enjoy!:)
