Because we rent I prefer that almost all of these activities take place outside where clean up is easier and the house/carpet are safe.
The weather plays a part in it... and has prevented many an activity I have planned... but eventually we find a nice day and out we go to the backyard for some fun.
On this particular day (after another stretch of rain) the boys were thrilled to have a chance to play with brand new play dough (as the previous batch I had made a few months ago went moldy)!
They played nicely for a couple of hours allowing me a chance to get caught up on laundry and dishes!
They each had a rainbow of colours to choose from...
unfortunately they both decided to mix the colours eventually but such is life!

Rolling out the dough...
James worked hard to make a play dough pizza...
While Jeremy enjoyed the cupcake making mould.
I had given them straws as well but those weren't very popular so next time I'll give them paddle pop sticks (popsicle sticks) to work with.
