Making glitter dough

We are always looking for fun play ideas to trial with frog.  If you are looking for inspiration a-z of playdoh at nuturestore is a great place to start. 

I love the ideas they have for sensory play doh, and as frog gets older I'm sure he's going to enjoying being able to explore these ideas. 

Howeve , as I discovered when we made this glitter dough,  he's more into the making part of play doh than the playing bit.

This playdoh creation was made with the assistance of froggy (7 months) and his cousin nutkin (18months).
I bought a messy play mat from Avon (nutkins mama is an Avon rep)
So  we set up our no cook play dough on the floor. 

Our mix was
One cup salt
Two Cups flour
One Table spoon baking powder
One cup of oil
And lots of glitter
We let the babies have a good mix of the dry ingredients first
Cousin nutkin mixes very well
Slowly we added the oil and food colouring
Then we added some more glitter for fun 
The end result was fabulous, but didn't appeal to the babies any where near as much as the actual making of the play dough itself.

Little Bloom- Cloth Nappy reviews

If you are a newbie in cloth its hard to know what to buy. I've been using  Cloth Nappies  for 16 months with my first born, and am preparing to have two in cloth when my daughter arrives in May. You could say I'm somewhat of cloth nappy pro. I've moved on from my start up stash, and invest in nappies that will see us through til froggy potty trains, and ideally ones his baby sister can use afterwards too! Pocket nappies are great for this purpose and this week I'm reviewing the little bloom nappies You can grab little bloom nappies on  amazon  from as little as £2.89 delivered. So they are a cheap option but are they cheerful enough to do the job?
