If you need a Thanksgiving activity to keep the kids occupied, whip up some DIY Pumpkin Spice Play Dough. The smell will delight and they won’t be underfoot!
If there are young kids on this year’s guest list, surprise them with some play that smells just like dessert. This make-at-home play dough is made from kitchen staples and only requires a little stove-top heating and kneading before it is ready to go.
Bombshell Bling suggests making some ahead of time and also whipping up a batch with the kids to get them really involved. Make sure the kids know, however, this is not for eating.
Give them an extra pie pan and let them go to town creating their own play pie crust that smells just like the real thing!
