Hello Everyone  🙂

We hope everyone is doing well 🙂

Everyone knows that Harry  likes to be busy trying new fantastic activities that support his learning.  Last night Harry came up with the idea of making homemade   play-dough.  Making and using  playdough was a great fun and developed Harry’s  understanding  of  a range of mathematical  concepts  including counting , measuring e.g. wight ,length  , shapes  ,developed problem solving and reasoning skills through trying out ideas ,and thinking about how to change them if they don’t work.  He would like to share with you all how to make a  play-dough.    

So your challenge is ” Make your own play-dough ”   

You can follow  Harry recipe 🙂

And if you want, you can add additional ingredients, e.g. paint or food coloring to the color palydough, scents  essence. And when your play dough is ready, you can make a nice playdough model by adding things that can be found in the garden or kitchen cabinet, e.g. stick, leaves, flowers, pebbles, rice, lentils, pasta, herbs, etc.

You will need ingredients such as  : flour , salt ,water  .
You will also need: a spoon, a large bowl, a cup.

.

And  follow Harry’s recipe ….
Put into a large bowl ;
2 cups of flour 

1 cup of salt

1 cup of water 

And mix it all together   until all ingredients turn into a  play-dough.       When Harry’s play dough was ready, he decided to stick 3 sticks he found in the garden, then took the pasta out of the cupboard, and put it one at a time on each stick … guess how many pasta he put .. 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15 !!! Yes ”15” pieces of pasta well done 🙂

Please share your playdough  making experience and  your amazing playdough  models with your nursery  friends by sending us photos, videos.

Good luck everyone 🙂
