Pumpkin Playdough Filed under ( playdough, Preschool )

As I mentioned in an earlier post, I teach 3 year old preschool. This is my 9th year and I love it. The children really enjoying playing with homemade playdough. We are going to enjoy Pumpkin playdough this next week - just before going to the Pumpkin Patch.

Pumpkin Playdough

Place in a medium size pan -

1 cup water
1 Tbsp. oil

Mix together and add:

1 cup flour
1/2 cup salt
2 tsp. Cream of Tartar
2 tsp. Pumpkin Pie Spice
1 tsp. cinnamon

Add the dry ingredients to the liquid in the pan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture holds together and pulls away from the side of the pan. Spoon out onto counter and knead for about one minute. I sprinkled a little flour on my counter - knead in with the playdough until just right texture. Allow to cool and quickly store in an airtight container so not to dry out.

**I 5x this recipe for my preschool class. This is great for making at home too. My girls loved it when they were little!
