Hey guys, I’m Amber. I wanna say thanks real quick to Heather for letting me be a blog hog for the day, so thanks!! I’m a mom of three all under the age of 4. Basically my life gets pretty crazy sometimes. (Like daily!, like 43076029438 times a day)

So today I thought I’d show you a few things I do to entertain my crazies.

Sometimes we go to the park!

Sometimes we play in the snow!

Sometimes we see colorful poodles. (Weird, right?!)

Sometimes we make monsters. (Glue, fluff balls, crazy eyes and construction paper)

But today I thought I’d show you how to make some playdough! So here we go:

You’ll need:

• 1 c. flour
• 1/2 c. salt
• 1 tbsp. cooking oil
• 2 tsp. cream of tartar
• 1 pkg. unsweetened Kool-Aid
• 1 c. water

Go on and mix up your dry ingredients.

Then add the oil and water.

Cook over medium heat until mixture forms a ball.

Then dump onto counter or wax paper and knead, knead, knead the kool-aid into it.

Then watch little hands play.

And sometimes your kid will be so grateful that he’ll make you a playdough heart and melt your heart!

Thanks so much for reading. Feel free to come visit me over on my blog! And again, thanks so much Heather for letting me be a blog hog. (saying that just makes me giggle)
