Playdough Recipes

I've been cleaning out the pantry today and one thing I noticed was an overabundance of flour that is near expiration. Instead of just throwing it out I decided to make playdough with the girls.  We decided to make the edible kind and the girls had a blast. The colors turn out a little dark since you are using peanutbutter in the recipe but it was quick and easy to make and pretty yummy too. :-)
