Play Dough Fun

Quick Tips,

As I was vacuuming today, I had to stop and scrape some play dough from the dining room rug. It dawned on me...just how many times I've heard friends mention that they don't let their kids play with the squishy stuff very often because they're afraid of the mess.
So, for the sake of those sad non play dough playing children everywhere, I decided to publish an eHow article describing my simple, cheap, and very effective method for removing play dough from carpeting. I threw in my homemade play dough recipe just for kicks :)
Play dough...there's nothing like it for my kids. It keeps them busy with fun and creative play for hours on end (especially if we throw in a few polly pocket dolls or those little plastic farm animals). Let 'em play! The mess is worth it...and it really isn't all that tough to clean up.
Here are those articles:
PS. If you're gonna go over there to check them out, please (pretty please with sugar on top) take a second to rate the article for me :)
Now head back to That Family for more WFMW hints and tips. See you next week!
Thanks for the tips! I have to admit, I am a mom who often doesn't do all the fun, messy things with my kids because of logistics and the mess factor. I have no excuse now - and my kids will thank you. ;)
I love homemade playdough! So, much fun!
Thanks for the kind comment on my kitchen re-do! Let me know if you decide to try it and send picts. :)
Great tips! My kids love play dough and it does entertain for hours.
Thanks, we love homemade playdough here but I don't always love the mess!
