The majority of our Advent calendar is filled with activites so that we don’t get too gift focused.  Making different types of playdough is one of our favorite Advent activities!

Ingredients:

Salt

Flour

Pumpkin Pie Spice

Alum

Water

Vegetable Oil

My kids ages range from 10 to 1 and they all still love to play with playdough!  The little ones obviously make a mess with it… but it’s fun to see what the big kids create with it.

Start by heating up your water to boiling.

In a separate bowl mix the flour, salt, alum and pumpkin pie spice together well.  You want to make sure that the pumpkin pie spice is mixed in well for even color.

Once your water is boiling add it to your dry ingredients.  You’ll also add in your vegetable oil.

I prefer to use my Kithchenaid mixer to mix it up. But you can definitely mix it by hand as well!

You can store the playdough in an air tight container or a large ziploc bag.
