We've tried lots of different recipes and she loves adding glitter. And when I've been desperate I've added lavender hoping it would calm them down. <br />It didn't, in case anyone was wondering...<br /><br />I have some almond essence left over from baking so I might add that next time to try and emulate the lovely shop-bought smell of playdough. Thanks for the reminder.<br /><br />PS. Love the pic of your beautiful pastel pots of dough.

Your playdough looks fantastic and I must admit to being particularly impressed with how you have managed to take a photo before the colours all merge into one. I keep catching our youngest underneath the table eating it.

I can never find cream of tartar though and people look at me as if I'm crazy when I ask, pointing me to tartar sauce. <br />Oh well. I live in hope of finding it. In the meantime we have some shop bought stuff. Plenty to make a big mess. I doubt I'll be adding any essential oils until he stops eating it. As smart as I think he is, even I have my doubts when he's eating big gobs of play dough and retching.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4406383393409112544.post-85640005669837414722010-01-18T19:20:32.784+00:002010-01-18T19:20:32.784+00:00This is so lovely - how pretty do those little pot...This is so lovely - how pretty do those little pots look! <br /><br />I've never made playdough before but will give it a go now - mine do really like playing with it but I've always just bought it.
