This week, we made Gingerbread Play Dough. I got the idea from Pinterest, but changed it to the spices that we love most. We also ground each spice by hand. The girls did all the measuring and mixing. They packed some for their classrooms, since the twins are in the middle of a Jan Brett unit at school. Today they read Gingerbread Baby. Tis the season!

How wonderful that your girls were involved in the whole playdough-making process, including grinding the spices! I added your playdough activity photo and Christmas activities to my Montessori-Inspired Christmas Activities at http://livingmontessorinow.com/2011/11/28/montessori-monday-montessori-inspired-christmas-activities/
The play dough looks beautiful in the jar - what a perfect gift with the little cooker in the jar. I love the seasonal pom pom spooning, too. I bet the M for mom just melted your heart :)
I had fun revisiting your post, Jessie! I featured your post and gingerbread playdough photo in my Montessori-Inspired Christmas Playdough Activities post at http://livingmontessorinow.com/2012/11/26/montessori-monday-montessori-inspired-christmas-playdough-activities/
