This Apple Cider Homemade Playdough is the perfect fall creative play for kids!
Not only do kids love playdough, but they also love when things are colourful and scented.
If your kids are anything like my Bella, playdough provides countless hours of creative play which gives us parents some much needed time to catch up on a show or read our favourite book.
Well, that is until they get hungry and need us to get them a snack. Maybe prepare ahead of that and give them a snack to much on while they play!
Homemade playdough is so easy to make and if you store it in an airtight container after play it can be used over and over again.
