Gingerbread Playdough Recipe
This gingerbread playdough is the perfect indoor sensory activity when it’s raining or snowing outside and will leave your house smelling amazing! It combines all your favorite Christmas flavors and smells just like you took a warm batch of ginger molasses cookies out of the oven.
My kids had so much fun making little gingerbread men with their rolling pins and cookie cutters. The dough is super soft and squishy and is really easy to work with. It’s perfect for kids and even makes a fun and inexpensive gift for your little ones.
Another fun thing about this recipe is that you can mix in red or green food coloring to make it extra festive. Feel free to add one color or multiple colors…it’s up to you! I kept mine all natural and just let the spices do the coloring.
