Making Playdough

Recently we made our own Playdough!

The children worked in pairs following a simple recipe. The process involved measuring, tasting the flour and salt and combining the ingredients. They added water and stirred until the mixture became too stiff. Then they turned it out on to the table and kneaded in the colour each child chose.









They had to squeeze it and squash it and roll it to achieve a smooth colour.











It was fun for the children to make their own Playdough. The process helps to strengthen their hands and improve their dexterity ready for writing!
