A little flour, a little mixing, and a whole lot of play 🧡

Our playdough recipe is one to keep handy for rainy afternoons and slow mornings. Make a batch together, then bring out whatever you already have: cups, spoons, rolling pins or a few toy animals. There’s no right way to play.

Save the recipe for your next playdough day, and tell us what your little one likes to make! 👐
