I've been wanting to introduce baby girl to play dough for a while now, but I have been waiting until I felt she wouldn't try to put it in her mouth. I decided just to make my own this time, and did the basic flour, water, salt, vegetable oil recipe. It came out really great and we had a lot of fun! Of course she is still pretty young to be making any masterpieces, but it did hold her attention for a good 20 minutes. She had fun touching and exploring it. I made little balls and she flattened them and I even gave her a frosting decoration spout to poke with which she enjoyed.
As she gets older, there are so many things I want to try, and a few good list of ideas can be found at:
