dough before dinner
as many of you know, my family is in limbo until september (en)during a cross-country move, where all of our art supplies are neatly packed into a box on a huge moving truck zooming down a highway somewhere at the moment. so yeah, admittedly i did absolutely NOTHING to personally initiate this creative idea… but i thought it was a welcome touch of genius (on someone else’s part) and wanted to share.
tonight i took N, her little friend, and his momma out to dinner at a pizza parlor. much to the kids’ (and mommas!) enjoyment, the server brought over a ball of raw pizza dough for each of them to play with while we waited for our meals. how simple is that?
with the addition of "friends" brought from home, she could have done this for hours
N's friend makes animal tracks in the dough
pizza dough is super-clean to play with, and has much more staying power than four primary-colored crayons and a menu! so, you restauranteurs out there who are kid-friendly, consider passing out the dough!
