Playdough!!!!

The other day Meagan needed me to make her some play dough for a school project.  She is having to do a research project on an inventor and she chose Ruth Wakefield.  I know you are all asking yourself "who is Ruth Wakefield?"  We owe her a lot because she invented the chocolate chip cookie.  One day she was making some other cookie and didn't have any cocoa and thought if she put big chunks of a chocolate bar she had received from Mr. Nestle that the chocolate would melt and her cookies would be the same as they normally were.  Well, the chocolate didn't melt and the cookies were delicious and now she is famous.  Meagan had to do a poster or a model of her inventor's invention so she thought she could make a giant cookie out of play dough.

 Emma and Eric wanted to play with playdough too so I made another batch and we had a great time playing with it.  Emma made a menagerie of lots of animals (a snail, penguin, dolphin, lion and turtle).

 Eric just made things and then squished them to make more.   Playdough is definitely a great toy!!!
