Playdo question: Can you put it in the oven?

[Caligula]

DS wants to.

Is it homemade - i.e. flour/water/salt - in which case should be alright.

If shop bought I wouldn't - but please do and then post the results .

you can make a salt dough which what is used for christmas decorations but actual playdough will smell horrid

It's not homemade - it's normal shop bought. I'm very dubious.

Hausfrau - because DS has made a plane he wants to keep and see if it goes hard!

just let it dry in the air

Go buy the boy some clay Caligula.

I've signed up for a pottery course starting in May. Will have to make do with playdo till then!

Sorted then. There will be many ceramic masterpieces chez Caligula come Summer .

my DD made some playdough masterpieces that we put on a tray and dried over 4 or five days on top of the boiler.
If using oven, put on low setting I would say.

I was going to do the salt dough thing at xmas with dd but when we did a test run the stuff shrank and browned quite alot.
I ended up buying a tub of clay from ELC for a £5 which I thought was a bargain.

Gingerbread - was yours shopbought too?

Sorry - mean Gingerbear!

Proper playdough in the tubs. (S'all right, my name is a play on Gingerbread/Gingerbeer isn't it?)

I agree and disagree with you because I tried putting shop bought clay in the oven and it was safe ❤️
