Do your children love playdoh as much as mine? London at four years old is just beginning to get really good at thinking up what to create and being able to attempt it. Story, however, is 2. If you have a little one that size, you probably know the dilemma of a child that really loves to play with playdoh, but is lacking in hand muscles to work the dough. I have tested so many kinds of store bough playdoh and homemade recipes, and I have finally discovered the very best recipe for the softest playdoh that is perfect for especially little hands. Two ingredients! 3/4 cup of hair conditioner and 1 1/2 cups of cornstarch. That's it! You mix the two together and knead it until it becomes soft nonsticky dough.

You can also get creative with it. You can add scents with extracts and food coloring. For example, cocoa powder for color and chocolate extract to make it a chocolate dough. Pink food coloring with strawberry extract would make a neat strawberry flavor. Just make sure little hands play and little mouths stay away.

Until next time,
