Having an Earth Mother Moment

This photo jumped out at me from whip up.




Minieco, a blog from the UK tells how to dye homemade playdough with all kinds of natural stuff found around the house and the block. Beets and turmeric and raspberries for example.

Yes, it could be a vividly colored disaster waiting to happen, but it could just as well be really fun and educational. So all you earth mothers and fathers and former earth mothers and fathers now doing double duty as earth grandmas and grandpas...here's new twist on a favorite kids' activity.

As Miss Frizzle would say - "Take chances. Make mistakes. Get messy."
