Try adding some essential oils, I did this and not only did the residents love molding the dough, but enjoyed the pleasant perfume. Try making coil pots, beads which they can paint later when dry.

You could make them into stars or wreathes for Christmas then bake them and paint them.
Hi Tarina, have keen residents to press play dough into cookie moulds; place a matchstick through while soft (to insert string) and allow it to dry. Once dried, hang on Christmas trees or make into mobile to entertain babies when they visit with Playgroup.

We have a visit from the Kindy children across the road, recently we had an activity where we made salt dough shaped them into beads and baked them in the oven, on another day painted them so they will be ready for the children's next visit so they can string them for necklaces. Lots of fun using the dough and looking forward to the children visiting.
I cannot believe it has been a full year since I started using Golden Carers. I remember going back and forth mentally if I wanted to try something new or keep on paying for an older resource that we didn't use often and was much more expensive for the entire year. I'm so glad I chose to make the switch and now here I am renewing my membership for the 2nd year. This site is great! Keep up the good work
