Edible Pumpkin Play Dough!
This edible pumpkin play dough smells amazing, takes only minutes to mix together, and is the perfect fall sensory activity for a group of kids! Plus, you only need two common fall ingredients!
Play dough is one of our favorite sensory materials! I wanted to have a fall scented play dough day, but we have two 1-year olds that still try to taste every play dough we use. After a little thought and a little experimentation, I came up with this recipe that is perfectly edible (though I'm not in love with the flavor, lol)!!
It is also perfectly play-able! It presses...
it squishes...
it molds...
In fact, everyone loved playing in it--from our 7-year old to our 1-year olds!
To make your own Edible Pumpkin Play Dough,
simply mix one (15-ounce) can of pumpkin and 3 1/2 cups white flour.
Knead them together until you get a nice dough consistency, about 2-4 minutes. If it is too dry, add a few drops of water. If it is too sticky, add a little more flour.
That's it! Easy peasy!
Now you just need to play!

(confession: Pumpkin is one of my all-time favorite smells!)
...and it is perfectly safe for our littlest friends to taste...over and over, if they want!
