Gingerbread Playdough Recipe

YAY, for Playdough Day. One of the best days of the year! To celebrate here is a great holiday playdough recipe that can be fun anytime of the year.

It seems to have become a yearly tradition to make a batch of Gingerbread Playdough for the kids at Christmas time. I made it last year for them to make a few Playdough Turkeys and they loved it. I never got around to sharing the recipe. This year the kids just had to have gingerbread playdough again. I foresee many more Christmas’s with homemade holiday playdough. Since my kids have enjoyed it so much, I have decided to find the time to write out the recipe so maybe others can enjoy it too.
