Cooking with the little one.

Today was our second snow day. Soooo...I thought I would do some projects with Syd to be prepared for the kids cooking tomorrow or when spring break is over and we also tried something new.
1. I made play dough with Syd. I got the recipe online and the nice part is that if she eats it, it can't hurt her.
Here is the website that I used: http://www.instructables.com/id/Easy-Affordable-Play-Dough/
1/2 cup salt
1/2 cup water
1 cup flour
food dye (any color, be creative!)
newspaper to cover the surface you're working on

It only takes about 10 minutes to make.

I also found another recipe that uses all natural dyes. I am going to try that later today. Here is the website for that. I will let you know how it goes.

This site has so many great things on it.

Syd and I also made two different sugar scrubs. Here is the site that I got the recipes from: http://www.tipjunkie.com/sugar-scrub/

We made #5 with the recipe of #9 minus the lemon (because I started making it before I checked to see if I had lemon) and added vanilla to half and almond extract to the other half. They turned out very well. I even scrubbed Syd's hands and feet. She thought it was pretty fun.
