Thank you Lifeasmom.com for hosting this fun, money saving event every week. The ideas are great.
First a very cheap way to spend a rainy afternoon. My daughter loves to play with play doe- here is our favorite scented recipe:
Mix 2 1/2 cups of flour with 1/2 cup of salt.
Add 2 envelopes of kool-aid (any flavor except lemonade).
Meanwhile, bring 2 cups of water to the boil.
Add the boiling water and 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil to the dry ingredients.
Mix together.
Be careful, it will be hot for a little while.
Let the kids play with the scented dough.
Dough can be stored in plastic bags for a few days.
Now here is our favorite recipe that is safe to eat (and tastes great)
2 cups powdered milk
1 cup Peanut butter
1/2 cup honey
I help her measure and pour everything into a large bowl- she mixes with her hands. This recipe takes care of snack time too. Enjoy!
