So many play dough recipes I see require you to cook the dough on the stove top and to stir it all together by hand and too be honest that seemed like WAY TOO MUCH WORK for me (haha)! So this recipe makes making play dough way less work and time consuming. The secret is boiling water and a stand mixer with the dough hook attachment!
One thing I really like about creating my own play dough is the ability to add scent to it. I personally am not a huge fan of the play dough scent. So adding a few drops of essential oils really helps with the dough smell. PLUS it gives a little extra to the sensory play. If Brody needs a little calming down I can give him the purple dough, or if he is a little crabby I will give him the pink dough.
So, if you give this dough a try let me know! It’s so quick and so easy and provides hours of fun INCLUDING when you make it. Brody loves to watch the kitchen aid and is intrigued watching it turn from flour to a nice dough.
