Peanut Butter Playdough

What could be better than something you can play with and eat?! You have to hope your kids don't eat it too fast and they play with it before they start devouring it.

Plus...it's as easy with just three ingredients

Ingredients:
1 Cup Peanut Butter (I prefer smooth)
2 Cups Nonfat dry Milk
1/2 Cup Honey

Mix the Ingredients. Add enough powdered milk to make the playdough dry enough to handle.

You can add other ingredients for your children to play with and make designs or shapes with, such as....
-chocolate chips
-raisins
-cheerios
-chow mein noodles (fun texture...kids will get a kick out of these noodles)
-any other fun treats your kids like could be added here.

They can make faces, cars, silly designs or whatever else sparks their creativity.

***Also, I've heard of people using corn meal as a substitute for the powdered milk, because of a lactose intolerant child. I've heard that is works just as well and some claim better...let me know if you try it and like it one way of the other. If you do decide to use corn meal add 8-12 ounces (add just a little at a time until you get the texture that you are wanting)***
