to have to pick up every last molecule of Playdoh?

I HAVE to. Every last bit. I spent about 20 mins picking tiny particles out of his Fun Factory machine.

If I leave, it'll go hard and be wasted. Got to get it all.

And while I'm on the subject, where does it go? Every pot is half full!

Have you got Moon Sand yet? Give that bugger a go, collecting bits of Playdoh will seem like a breeze in comparison.

I do it too. I was initially also rather OCD about the kids mixing the colours, but I am proud to say I have finally relaxed this view.

Yes, the colour thing!!! I was feeling a bit Nazi, I was getting so obsessed about not mixing the colours!!! Is it racist not to allow the colours to mix freely? Wink

PS I've had Wine Wine Wine so I might be a bit naughty Grin

Get a puppy. They eat anything that kids leave out. play doh is a favourite and dyes their poo for days. Valuable lessons have been learned in the Theo house.

I am never having it in my house again. It's just such horrible, irritating stuff. The DCs get bored of it after 2 seconds.

It makes me shrill and stabby.

I passed all playdoh and paraphernalia to their nursery.

Win win.

Mixing playdoh colours is completely unacceptable and forbidden under my cautious eye.
