This lavender playdough recipe is easy to make, uses basic ingredients and is perfect for sensory play.

Do you find that your kids can get a bit over stimulated and need help to calm down sometimes? Our tried and tested lavender scented playdough has been great for my kids, it’s soft, naturally scented and smells fantastic

Birthday Cake Edible Playdough: Sue Hendra Cake Activity

Updated on by | 8 Comments

I am so excited to be working with Macmillan Children’s Books to share with you this edible playdough recipe! Firstly, because Sue Hendra and Paul Linnet are two of my favourite people when it comes to childrens books. Yes, my kids love them too (Supertato is crazy popular here) but I’m normally the one reading and it’s their books I go to first as well. Secondly because to celebrate the launch of their new book Cake we’ve been making some birthday cake themed edible playdough and it smelt sooooo good! I had my daughter on hand as product tester and she had a great time with this – I hope your kids love it just as much!
