And in case you were wondering, the recipe above is for playdough. I stole this one out of my mom’s recipe box years ago. She used to make it when we were kids but I’ve never had the need to make it myself. Safe to eat! Add your own dye!

That’s the same recipe Mum used for me and that I use for Linnea.
I love the continuity of generations that can be had with a simply homemade clay recipe. 🙂

My mom used that recipe for me but I never found it to use for my kids and now they are past playdough age. 😦

I used that recipe to make playdough for my son, and it was wonderful. My favorite part was kneading it while it was still hot, so I could cool it off enough to give it to the boy. I always thought that would be great therapy for people with arthritis.

I’m glad to see so many people still make playdough!
Gina, talking about the kneading made me want to make it just for that step.
