Playdough Balloon

I made our toddler a balloon filled with playdough for her activity today.

At first she ran around with it holding the balloon by the knot at the top. So, I put her in the highchair and showed her how to make indentations in it with her fingers. Saying things like "look it's squishy." She got the hang of it.

I liked how there was no mess. The only problem was that after awhile she wanted to bite the balloon. I remade it once after finding a hole in it, but I couldn't keep her from biting them.

I did walk around the house with her too, pointing out other green things, since her balloon was green. That was educational, since she is learning her colors right now.

Here is a recipe for the playdough.
