Gingerbread Playdough Kit Gift Idea

December 8, 2014 By Vanessa Leave a Comment

Gingerbread Playdough Kit Gift | www.seevanessacraft.com

Looking for a non-edible holiday party favor or gift? These gingerbread man play dough kits were a hit at our preschool play date this weekend! They are super easy to make and the kids will have hours of fun using the gingerbread man cookie cutter (found at Michaels) to cut their play dough. They can decorate their play dough gingerbread man with buttons, googly eyes and other materials in their kits. You can make your own play dough using this glitter play dough recipe or if you are short on time, pick up a few containers of ready made play dough. You can mix in ginger, cinnamon and nutmeg spices to your play dough for additional sensory fun!

MATERIALS
mason jar
play dough
buttons
pom poms
googly eyes
sequins
little baggy
gingerbread man cookie cutter
foam gingerbread man (found in the Target Dollar Spot or make your own)
double sided tape
cupcake liner
jute string or ribbon

INSTRUCTIONS: Place the play dough inside the jar. Place the buttons, pom poms, googly eyes and sequins inside a little baggy and place the baggy inside the jar. Place the lid on the jar and place a cupcake liner on top, screwing the rim around the liner. Tie the cookie cuter to the jar with a piece of jute or ribbon. Adhere a foam gingerbread man to the front of the jar using double sided tape. Give the jars out as party favors or holiday gifts. The kids can use the cookie cutters to make play dough gingerbread men (or women) and decorate them with the buttons, sequins and googly eyes.

I'm Vanessa and it's my mission in life to spread my love of hot glue guns and glitter to others. I suffer from craft ADHD, regularly working on at least 10 projects at the same time and my craft room looks like a tornado hit it. My first craft book, Party in a Jar, was published in 2014. I look forward to crafting with you!
