Big thank you to Cedar Cross Preschool mom Nikki for reminding us that preschool isn't the only place to have AWESOME play dough!  Here is her adorable daughter Sicily experimenting with their own version at home.  

I am thinking of a red play dough for Valentines Day tomorrow would be tons of fun!

Check the bottom of this post for the very easy recipe.
