And what do you get on a sunday morning?
Two boys playing quietly with playdough!!!!
We now have green glittery playdough and various “Models” made from playdough. I have some peace and quiet and it took about five minutes to make. Instant calm! lol
The recipe is as follows:
Twwo cups of plain flour
1/2 a cup of salt
1 cup of water
1 and a 1/2 Tablespoons of oil
Food colouring (optional)
Basically mix the salt and flour in a big bowl,
mix a drop of food colouring into the water.
add the oil and water to the bowl.
Mix it all together and hey presto, playdough!
If the mix is still too runny add more flour until your happy with the consistancy, apparently it will keep for up to two weeks in an airtight box.
Much cheaper than shop bought stuff!

What do you think?????
Here he is sitting on it. Its one we found as we were walking home from taking the dog for a walk yesterday….
Its very noisy, goes very slowly up hills, apparently gets very dirty and only goes faster when you promise some easter egg when you get home. It also makes revving noises constantly, gets filled up with petrol in Jacks bedroom at night and sleeps in his bed with him.
I got told off for sitting on it by mistake yesterday too lol

Yesterday Jack decided that he wanted to take his “monkey” out with him. Monkey is normally confined to Jacks bedroom and doesnt have the best personal hygeine despite several spins in the washer because he’s his cuddle toy at night.
Anyway, for some reason yesterday it was decided that monkey deserved to come downstairs into the real world for a bit.
We got ready to go out, shoes on, coats on etc etc and at the point Jack suddenly wanted Monkeys shoes on!
This resulted in Auntie Vicky having to root around to find shoes small enough to fit on monkey.
Once the shoes were on, we went and loaded ourselves into the car. Monkey had to have his seat-belt on (Of course!) and was given a very stern talking to by Jack about wearing seat-belts and general car safety.
One we got to boots monkey was treated to a trip round boots, firstly by being dragged by the arm, then once we had spotted the mini Shopping trolleys he was given the honour of a ride in one of those. After several crashes and being squashed by lots of shopping Monkey was finally put back into the car.
When we went to grandma’s last night he was also taken as guest of honour. Although the shoes did fall off at one point. Maybe his feet were tired??
He’s now resting on the sofa recovering. It must have worn him out though as he’s not moved since we got home last night!
