Play Dough
Happy Mother's Day to all you mommies out there!
I think part of having a healthy family is enjoying fun things together. I have fond memories growing up of playing with play dough. We hardly ever had the store-bought kind. My Mom would make this recipe and it was great - kept us entertained for hours. I made some the other day and my kids and I had a blast playing with it. The possibilities are limitless with play dough. It's non-toxic so that's good too. This is a fun recipe to make when you need something a little different to do with the kids.

I've used a variation of this recipe before, and I love how the play dough isn't grainy. A tip I heard is that you can add a package of unsweetened Kool-Aid powder to the recipe to give it a sweet smell.
