This is one for younger folks.... but ONLY if no one in the family or who will be playing has a nut allergy!!
Get your critters together... clear a clean spot on the table, lay out a large bowl [or two], wash hands well, put on aprons, and get ready for some creative fun where kids can be sticky, then playful, and can eat any mistakes! You only need three ingedients to get started.
Edible Play Dough
Mix together:
2 cups powdered milk
2 cups peanut butter
Blend in 3 Tablespoons of honey
Options:
Add more powdered milk a bit at a time if the dough is too sticky to use at first.
Add edible extras for texture, taste, fun or to decorate what you create with the basic dough!
Gather some cookie cutters, presses, decorating stencils or whatever you would like to use for decorating and shaping. We found that even egg molds will work!
You can decorate your creations with anything edible. [Ideas: nuts, raisins, and chocolate chips mix in well. Stick pretzels, MandMs, gum drops, string licorice, and even sprinkles can be added to make roads, trees, etc. in your play dough world.]
My granddaughters tend to make fake cookies, cakes, flowers, etc.
My grandsons are more likely to make cars, roads, and villages.
What will your kiddos think of?
Think of it this way.... at least when your little one makes you play cookies of edible dough... you can eat them rather than fake-eating clay or play-doh creations.
Have fun.... after all it's Anything Can Happen Day!
