Fun DIY Play Dough [Sponsored by OMO]

Not only is this a cost-effective way in which to keep your little ones entertained, but it is also a wonderful activity that allows you to initiate some quality bonding time!

Once your kids have completed the activity, you can leave the dough to dry and it’ll harden – making a long-lasting piece of art.

You will need to help out with the preparation; however, the dough is completely child-friendly and not harmful if swallowed accidentally.

There is also no reason to fear splotches and stains, OMO’s effective laundry detergents remove stains faster to ensure that you have more time to spend with your kids.
