It’s probably a little early to be dreaming about snow but with the muggy weather I had today, I’m almost ready for winter. Well, almost ready…okay, not really, but the thought of winter made me think that it would be an excellent time to share my recipe for Whipped Snow.
This is a fun little recipe [...]

As many of you know, I am a big fan of playdough.  Usually, I prefer to make a non-cooked playdough since it takes less time and I can make it with my kids.  Sometimes, though; I like to make the cooked playdough since it usually lasts longer than the non-cooked.
What you need:

1 1/2 cup of [...]

I’m not sure about you, but for me summer means that I will be seeing a lot of time outside, whether I want to or not. My kids love to be outside in the sunshine and will be out playing with just about everything. They will mention, now and then, that they are a little [...]

I love, I mean LOVE, Paper Mache but unfortunately, my kids do not feel the same. For some reason, they act like paper mache paste is an acid that once it gets on their skin it will begin to burn. I’m not sure why this is but the same kids that hate the feeling [...]

Cloud Dough is interesting in shape [...]

Today, I thought I would get back to supplying everyone with another fun recipe to make with your kids and decided that maybe what we need is something really gross.  Nothing can be much grosser than snot and I have two recipes that you can use.  One is for older kids since Borax is poisonous [...]

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 [...]

I am a huge fan of goop, not only is it a great experience for children to play in but it also feels great to just let your hands sink into it.  Goop has the wonderful properties where it will run when there is no resistance but add that resistance and it goes hard and chalky. [...]

This is a recipe that I created when I was working in preschool.  There isn’t too many opportunities when you want to make playdough with the children, especially since our kitchen was upstairs and didn’t have enough room to sit and make it with 16 children.  This meant that teachers in my center often made [...]
