Wanton disregard for play dough (other squidgy media are available) rules.

My jaw-dropped at the FastAndLooseAttitude, I, of course, genty addressed the child about inappropriate behaviour, and all was well not going to mention the cat food incident.

But, I just can't settle.

I'm all ansty.

I really think ChaoticBoy needs to move away from this
Hoodlum, he may catch some thuggery.

Did he eat the playdoh? yum Blush

TalcAndTurnips · 05/10/2012 22:08

Pomme - not necessarily.

It depends on the level of detail.

Misshapen sausage = OK

Veiny Love-Tree complete with bell-end = Cause for Concern

HolyAutumnGoldBatman · 05/10/2012 22:10

Did he pick his nose whilst playing with the playdoh?

I saw this happen in a nursery once and have never got over it

Thingiebob · 05/10/2012 22:10

I am thinking the child mixed colours then fashioned a cock.

Skivvytomany · 05/10/2012 22:11

Did he make green playdoh bogies and sit with them hanging out his nose?

Skivvytomany · 05/10/2012 22:12

Or did he lick he playdoh to make it stick better?

Kennyp · 05/10/2012 22:12

Doesnt nous always have an s at the end.
Other than that. I allow play dough on a table only. tighter than two coats of paint

PommePoire · 05/10/2012 22:15

I've got it! The wanton hoodlum child failed to observe regulations associated only rolling out PlayDoh on a plastic table covering?

Thank you, Talc I see what you're saying, so basically:

Akin to rude vegetable item on Thats Life = OK
Could be used as cast for top selling dildo = NOT OK

OtterLovesTheRumba · 05/10/2012 22:16

Did he stick it on a radiator? You'll never get it all off. Just replace the radiator - far less traumatic than seeing the stain every single day for five years despite having used various cleaning products and even repainting the bugger twice.

TalcAndTurnips · 05/10/2012 22:17

Pomme - yes, that's about the size of it (if you'll pardon the expression)

RikersBeard · 05/10/2012 22:22

He's eaten crisps next to the dough-zone and got crumbs in it hasn't he?

QuickLookBusy · 05/10/2012 22:25

Shoved a bit up his nose?

missnevermind · 05/10/2012 22:26

I am heaving at the thought -

Did he playdoh the cat food?

Little jelly lumps as you roll [bleugh]

Rents · 05/10/2012 22:28

Did he put his dinky in it? Bitter experience, I once walked into my little brothers room and he had his in a pot of silly putty.

IgnoringTheChildren · 05/10/2012 22:29

I'm pretty certain that the first rule of PlayDoh is that it doesn't come out when there are non-residents present. In my house this is also the second rule of PlayDoh.

PlayDoh out in other people's houses when we visit makes me very anxious and I tend to helicopter parent... This is despite having a very well trained PlayDoher (DS1). DS2 (nearly 2) has no idea of the existance of PlayDoh nor is this likely to change any time soon.

PatriciaHolm · 05/10/2012 22:31

I know - he's been rolling it on the walls? That's the END, you know, the WHOLE WALL will need repainting. (pours OP a large glass of red)

imperialstateknickers · 05/10/2012 22:31

Chaos is this the second thread you've started today without returning to put us out of our misery?

PomBearWithAnOFRS · 05/10/2012 22:31

I looks smug only allow my perfect DCs to play with Play Dough outside and have the grooviest maaaan drive in town Grin
I bet the Visiting Child either ate the play dough or used the cat food as play dough and fashioned meaty chunk genitalia

kweggie · 05/10/2012 22:48

Summerrain, do you mean IN the nappy or EVENTUALLY in the nappy....
(ds2 once produced piece of chewing gum, filched from ds1 and dd1, in his nappy (eventually)WITH TEETH MARKS STILL INTACT ON THE GUM!

ChaosTrulyReigns · 05/10/2012 22:51

Alopogies..

I had to go to Yoof Club.

No one is kerlose.

SHRIIIEEEKPoolingBearBlood · 05/10/2012 22:52

eat it? Make it into a knob?

SHRIIIEEEKPoolingBearBlood · 05/10/2012 22:52

refuse to play with is as it's babyish?

steppemum · 05/10/2012 22:54

playdo fight?

no problem with colour mixing here, we have huge blob of homemade playdough in one colour too cheap to have multi coloured

steppemum · 05/10/2012 22:55

put it in real cooker and turned it on?

(my dd did this with a tray full of plastic food....)

naturalbaby · 05/10/2012 23:00

I may have to implement a play doh entrance exam if kids these days are abusing the play doh rules to such inappropriate extents.

New phone chaos?!
