They each took turns measuring the ingredients for their playdough -- Lael made red with orange extract mixed in and Jaden made the minty green. Then they had to stir . . . and stir . . . and stir . . .
. . . until the playdough was "the consistency of mashed potatoes" -- of course, that didn't mean as much to the kids as it did to me. After all, they usually eat mashed potatoes without contemplating the consistency of the dish.
Then Mommy kneaded the playdough to get it nice and smooth -- it was still really hot so the kids couldn't really touch it. Then they had to wait for it to cool so they could play with it. Doesn't it look pretty, and so festive?
I predict that we'll enjoy this playdough a whole bunch this Christmas season!

Play dough.....fun, fun, fun!!! It looks good enough to eat, but you don't want to do that!
Love you, Lael & Jaden! Grandma Martin.
I just made playdoh with John and Gracie as well. Looks like you all had fun. Hope all is well with you.
