Playdoh and Pasta Monsters

Friday, 22 May 2015

We are stuck at home today as we still only have one car and unfortunately Mr MoaB went to work with the pushchair in the boot of his car! Whoops!


Thank goodness the weather is okay as we've spent most of the morning out in the garden. However, at one point Little Miss A asked to do playdoh. We haven't had it out for a while but I wanted to add a new element for her and came up with the idea of pasta.

I raided the kitchen cupboard to find some bits of spaghetti, penne pasta, macaroni pasta and chickpeas. Then put these out with the playdoh. 

Materials:
    • Playdoh
    • Dried pasta and chickpeas
    • Imagination
Little Miss A really seemed to enjoy having something new to do with the playdoh. She particularly liked sticking the spaghetti in. 














This is the longest she has ever sat and played with the playdoh so definitely a success!

Here are our creations. I had fun making a little monster too!

    Lovely idea to add something different like pasta to the normal play doh play. It looks like she's enjoying it...and I love the monsters :-)
