In the past, it definitely has not been my favorite kids activity; I have found it dried out in the most unusual places, and at least in our house it immediately all gets mixed together to resemble a big blob of brownish-blackish-greyish sludge. Not to mention Cole continuously attempting to eat it. But, Franny and Cole love it.
With the remainder of the kid's supply barely pliable enough make a basic ball, Auntie Noelle brought a fresh supply with her on her latest visit. Colorful and soft with a variety of colors--what a treat! And, Cole finally started to play with it, rather than eating it! It's very cute to see him try to use the roller and cutters. Since this visit nearly two weeks ago, both kids have sat and played with it daily, sometimes for long periods of time. Seeing them play so intently, happily, and sometimes even quietly together has made me rethink play-doh to a certain degree. Maybe they will even find some in their stockings this year. Maybe.

Oh my, you are definitely not alone. I also have a love-hate relationship with the stuff. I love that the kids can be engrossed for really long periods of time with Play-doh, but there are always tiny pieces of it left everywhere...
