My six year old nephew chose my birthday present himself - it was playdoh. He told the shop assistant it was for his Aunty. She smiled and said oh will your Aunty like that. My sister laughed and said yes.

I LOVE Play-Doh and will happily play with it OUTSIDE with my kid.  I always wanted a factory!  But I can be trusted to not mash it into things. 

But not inside!   :P

Hey there's another waiting activity for people - make your own play dough.

It's lovely when it's warm! Oh and if you use self raising (can't remember what that is in America - different I think) you can make a different more stretchy consistency.

Between the music and glitter I know I'm in the right place while waiting. I ship off my documents tomorrow! (And continue panicking about trying to get my house ready to go on the market.) 

I hope the visa is there for her early in the day!
