Best of 2011 Blog Hop
For me, I knew it was going to have to be play dough. We’ve enjoyed lots of playdough recipe fun this year and made snowmen, chocolate cupcakes and oceans and even been to outer space. But the post I’ve picked as my entry to the Best of 2011 Blog Hop is this one: my Let’s Play Dough ebook.
It’s my most popular post on the blog with over 10,00o of you sharing the play dough love! It’s got our favourite play dough recipes in it including a no-cook version, a salt dough recipe and a no-knead bread dough that’s great for children to try. It also has a year’s worth of ideas for different ways to play with dough, so you can ring the changes each week.
If you’re not one of the 10,000 who’ve already seen it, you can download your free copy of Let’s Play Dough here. I hope you have fun with the ideas in 2012. And why don’t you like NurtureStore on Facebook or add it to your reader so we can bring you lots more play ideas, all year long.

I swear by your playdough recipes: every time I need to make it I ‘dig out’ your ebook. Still not managed the cooked stuff yet though: mine is always gooey…..there’s a new dimension of sensory play to it though, so no-one loses!!
Domestic Goddesque, it makes me very happy to think the book is useful to you 🙂 We nearly always go with the no-cook recipe too – it’s just so quick and easy.
Your play dough e-book was one of my faves too! I used it when I began whipping up play dough at home this past year & now we’re hooked!
Love the play dough e-book! Amazing!
Wow, I hadn’t seen the play doh ebook before. I will definitely be using it. Happy New Year. xx
oops, put in 3 posts, then read that I was only supposed to put 1. Sorry. I also use your play dough e book as a resource often. I refer fellow mamas to the ebook whenever I hear of peeps looking for something fun to do at home with the kids, especially now on the east coast, cabin fever.
Off to look at the play dough e-book now! 🙂
