If you have ever wanted to learn how to make playdough, I have some great playdough recipes to share with you.  It’s very easy to make and definitely one of those activities that keep kids entertained for long stretches of time.  It’s also one of those perfect summer indoor activities for when it’s just too hot to venture out.  These recipes are very easy and include basic ingredients you probably already keep on hand in your kitchen, like salt, flour, and vegetable oil.

Not only can you learn how to make playdough to enjoy during the summer with your kids, but it’s a great senosory activity and a guaranteed fun time for your students if you happen to be a teacher.

Food coloring can jazz up the color and create a rainbow of fun!  A few drops of candy and baking flavoring can make your playdough smell amazing.  Throw in a little glitter to make it sparkle.  There are so many ways you can make a basic playdough recipe even better.  Want to give it a try with your kids?  Check out these amazing recipes for how to make playdough that are pictured above and see which one becomes your favorite!

    I can’t wait to try the rest of these. My kids are constantly asking to make peanut butter playdough (thanks for sharing it!), but it would be fun to mix it up with some of these other fabulous recipes! Pinning!
