This was our Sensory Therapy activity of the day. We made oatmeal play-dough and had tons of fun! Bonus was this activity Little Guy even got in on, although he didn't want to help with the mixing. He loves play-dough, so we are trying to add more textures to the experience. This play-dough had a slightly dry scratchy texture. Extra water makes it more on the sticky side.
1. Mix 2 parts oatmeal with 1 part flour in a large bowl.
2. Mix measure out one part water and mix food coloring into the water. The color mixes in easier this way. Kneed with hands
until it forms a ball.
We repeated steps one and two for more colors!
3. Play!!!
UPDATE:: We unfortunately discovered the hard way that this playdough recipe should be refrigerated for storage. After a few days, it has started to get kinda smelly, so awesome playdough recipe though! We will have to make it again and refrigerate!
