For our last activity of this week we decided to do a messy activity except for in the end it wasn't really that messy which was definitely a plus. We played with edible play dough! You can find the recipe we used here at Love, Play, Learn. It was really easy to make but with the food coloring we added, the husby thought it looked like a ball of dirty carpet. Oh well. Following the recipe made a ball of play dough slightly bigger than a baseball. For our activity we added a potato masher and cookie cutter to mash and mold although Izzy didn't really understand the concepts of mashing and molding. However, he did enjoy playing with the ball itself and it is a good thing it was edible because he ate quite a bit of it. Overall it was a pretty simple activity and as I said, super easy to clean up since the play dough didn't stick to the floor when Izzy decided he didn't need his trusty sensory bin anymore.
