Hi - have you tried adding essential oils to the Doh - sorry - dough!!!
My girls love lavender in the purple, tea tree in the green - some colour connection I suppose - we call it aromadoh!

Regards,

Emma :-)

Salam

I did try adding flavouring once - orange flower for orange and rose water for red and various others, but it just made them eat it. Lavender would be good to calm moods I suppose but staying away from some essential oils since reading the affect on male hormones *shriek*

We've seen it made with Kool-Aid type powder to give it color and scent.

I generally try to avoid anything smelling edible unless it is edible, due to the fact they will eat it. Apart from food, which becomes inedible due to the fact that it is in fact meant to be consumed rather than played with. Then they don't eat it. They play with it. SO maybe I should make food smelling of playdoh instead??

I would eat it on toast.
