Playdough Monsters


When I saw this post a month or two ago on mama smiles I immediately thought of Halloween and knew we needed to try it. We made our own playdough in Blue, Orange and Green and the kids added wiggly eyes with coloured eyelids. This activity was great for keeping the kids occupied while dinner was cooking and what surprised me the most was Neevah sorted the eyes into colours and each of her monsters had it's own coloured eyes.


Playdough Recipe
2 cups of plain flour
2 tbs Cream of Tartar
2 tbs Cooking Oil
1 cup Salt
2 cups of Water
Food Colouring

Mix all ingredients in a saucepan (except food colouring) stir over medium heat for 3 - 5 mins or until the mixture congeals. Once cool add food colouring.

I know my kids would love this!!! But I'm terrible at making Play dough. Can you believe this FunMum is admitting that??? LOL

O no Kelly it can't be so! Add playdough to your shopping list and I promise not to tell anyone you didn't make it yourself LOL :)
