Master E loves cooking, here he is with the ingredients ready to get started. |
Lots of fun was had tipping the ingredients in. |
There was plenty of oppotunity to touch after putting in each new ingredient and talking about what things felt like. |
Some stirring. |
Adding the jelly crystals. |
Loving pouring in the water! |
Lots more stirring and talk of lumpy and wet. |
What our playdough looked like before being cooked. |
Starting to come together. |
Hot, fresh from the saucepan. |
All kneaded and ready for play. It smells great as it has taken on the scent and colour from the jelly. |
This made a small amount of playdough, but it looks and smells fabulous. Looking forward to having a play with it!
