We all love play-dough and all the different objects that you can mold with so I decided to add another recipe to my already growing recipe list. Having lots of alternatives for play is a great way to keep children interested in the activities that you set out for them.

You have probably seen this experiment before but it is one of my favorites so I wanted to share. If you can’t tell by the photograph, I do this activity often enough to warrant purchasing the big box of baking soda. I think it has something to do with the fact that I feel like [...]
