Being the meticulous firstborn I am (see previous post), one phobia I have regarding Play-Doh is mixing different colors until they are impossible to separate. Although I acquired a large Play-Doh collection at a garage sale once, I rarely get it out and usually only under close supervision with limited color choices at one time. However, today I chose to let go. I opened five different containers for Emily and let her do whatever she wanted. This was the inevitable result...
She proudly carried her "tree with a bird in it" around the whole house--which of course meant picking up little bits that fell off all over the house. I picked apart and separated as much as I could when it was time to clean up, but we have a new color container now. It was worth it, though, because Emily entertained herself for over an hour while Lincoln napped and I got a lot of food prep done in the kitchen. Can't beat that!
