Making Fun
It was simple enough, that's for sure.
A lot less expensive than running to the store and buying it.
" Playdough is a classic childhood toy everyone can have fun with, and it's so easy to make at home you'll never buy that stinky store variety again.
Basic ingredient ratios:
2 cups flour
2 cups warm water
1 cup salt
2 Tablespoons vegetable oil
1 Tablespoon cream of tartar (optional for improved elasticity)
food coloring (liquid, powder, or unsweetened drink mix)
scented oils"
Not only simple and fun but also associated with valuable lessons.
Stirring a hot pot requires patience
Wear plastic bags on your hands
(or for the more civilized individual, you could wear rubber gloves)
And NEVER...
Never use CONFECTIONER'S SUGAR as a substitute for FLOUR!
And who learned this invaluable lesson?
No, it wasn't me.
No, it wasn't Mia.
It was my son...LOL!!!
What was a "funny" you learned in the kitchen?
