Do you need a quick and easy gift for a young child, that won’t cost much AND is fun too? Playdough gifts are just that and I am showing you two ideas playdough kit today!
I used our microwave playdough recipe for each of these playdough gifts. This takes about 8 minutes to make, plus 10 minutes for cooling down. You could easily make it the morning before you need it. I wrap the playdough in cling wrap to keep it from hardening.
Pink princess playdough kit
I made a batch of sparkly pink playdough(one could make any colour). To make it sparkly, I added some fine glitter after let it cool down. I bought a miniature plastic princess set. This was added to a clear plastic container and wrapped up with a pretty ribbon and princess gift tag. A princess storybook(not pictured) was also added to the gift bag.
A pretty playdough gift for a little princess!
Blue Ocean Playdough Kit
This kit’s playdough was coloured a sea green/ turquoise. I also added fine glitter to make it shiny. In the other container I added ocean toys, some rocks, shells and cookie cutters. I also added a mini roller pin to this set together with an ocean themed book. This was all bundled together with a pretty ribbon and the roller pin on top.
