Last week my sister gave me this huge tub of cool play doh toys that Chandler didn’t play with anymore. My little guys were so excited, but Travis was like “Where’s the Play Doh?†Now, I have bought Play Doh many times. The boys forget to put it back in the container and it dries up…or…Travis eats it…Ya I know…gross. lol What is with kids and eating Play Doh!
So, I decided instead of forking out the 15 buck for a pack of Play Doh, we would just make our own! Today we did just that and the boys loved it.

The dough will begin to thicken. When the dough pulls away from the sides and clumps in the center pull it off the heat and plop it out onto a cutting board to cool.
Let it get nice and cool and then kneed it till its nice and smooth. Now you can add your colors. I had green, red and yellow food coloring, I have no idea what happened to the blue. But it doesn’t really matter anyway because the boy are going to end up mixing all the colors!

To mix in the colors, just make a little hole in the center and squirt it in. Then start Kneading it in, try not to color your hands too. :)
