D is for Dough!

I am so excited to be part of an amazing group of bloggers that are participating in 31 Days of ABCs. We have all chosen a letter to write about, and mine is D!

D is for Daddy, dog, dinosaur, duck, doll, drum, dump truck, diaper and many more! But right now we’re playing with a lot of play dough.

To celebrate “D is for Dough” I made three new types of dough for my son: Orange, Lemon and Banana! I used my basic recipe (here) but made three batches. I added one teaspoon of extract (lemon, banana and orange) for each batch of dough, then added red and yellow food colouring to get the desired colour.

F decided to add straws to this dough. The banana dough was his favourite!

Here are some more fun dough ideas:

Salt Dough Monsters
We made some fun monsters using salt dough, googly eyes, straws and pouch caps!

Herb and Spice Dough
I made play dough and coloured it with an assortment of herbs and spices. This was a great sensory experience!

Glowing Salt Dough
This was our first experiment with salt dough and we made a glow in the dark version!

Play Dough Birds
We added feathers, straws, googly eyes and craft foam beaks to play dough to make birds!

Jello Dough
I used different flavours of jello to make these brightly coloured (and scented!) doughs.

Glitter Dough
I added some loose glitter to a basic play dough recipe for some sparkly fun!

Mud Dough
I also made some mud dough as part of our farm small world. Anything goes when making this dough!
