Christmas is such a fantastic time of year, there are so many possibilities of fun ways to play with a festive theme. It can also be a really busy time of year, so I do love simple activities that I can set up for the children and get them started that they can play with for ages. That is why we are turning to our favourite activity, play dough as it definitely suits our needs!
We started by making some Kool Aid play dough following our favourite recipe. I made two batches, one that was red and one that was green (mixing blue and yellow Kool Aid) and added some glitter to each batch to make it extra festive.
Then I set up a tray for each of the kids with red and green play dough as well as cookie cutters, rolling pins, cupcake cases, and little bits to stick into the dough as well. I just set each of their trays in front of them and let them explore as they wished to begin with.
This post is part of the 12 Days of Christmas series hosted by Emma Owl. Take a look to see all of the fantastic festive ideas!
