Make Your Own Playdough, Paint, and Other Craft Materials: Easy Recipes to Use with Young Children
I have to assume that this book is very good. I bought it for someone else and had it sent directly to them. They specifically asked for it by name and author.

This book contained so many excellent paint, playdough and clay ideas that you can make yourself. My preschool class loved them! It was fun to introduce new textures and sensory experiments to them! It was both a learning and playful experience!

to my daughter with the four kids. Can’t say she’ll ever have time to look into it but she surely buys enough of the real stuff that she should. Can’t say that I’ve looked into it myself.

I think this book is wonderful! If you have any of the “how to make and do things” type of books some of these recipes might be included but to see them all laid out in order with recipes for different things is very nice! Plus most of the recipes all share common ingredients so you don’t need to buy a lot of hard to find stuff for each project.
The way this book is laid out,with one recipe per page and large print,is very easy for children to read.My daughter really enjoyed being able to read the list and help mix up the ingredients.We especially liked the gloop and glop recipes for making slime.
If you work at a school or daycare or if your kids go through paint and playdough like it is going out of style,I highly reccomend this book to cut supply cost because whipping up large batches of supplies will save you lots of money and if you get the kids involved is an awesome learning experience!

This book has been a great help to me as a stay at home mom of a toddler!! Great ideas to keep her busy when the weather is too hot to get outside(or as winter approaches too cold!). I love the ideas and my daughter has loved the varied activities in her “art” time!
