Fall Playdough DIY
When my daughter was smaller I loved to make playdough with her. I realized the other day that while I did this with my daughter, I didn’t do it as much with my son. I decided to put together this fall playdough diy just for him. We pulled out all of our supplies and had a lot of fun together. Check out these tips to enjoy a playdough making day with your kids.
