Homemade Fun

Olivia had off from school today because of possible inclement weather. We made a no cook play-DOUGH today. I've made the recipe you "cook" many times with my classes, but was out of cream of tartar.

So we made actual dough minus the yeast. It was a pretty good recipe, but I like the original recipe better. I knew Olivia would enjoy it, but was surprised by how much Nathan enjoyed it. He did try to sneak a little in his mouth, but quickly found out it wasn't any good.




They played with the play-dough for over an hour! Luke played, nursed, and tried to take a nap. Some little people were giggling too loud in the kitchen. :)
