Witch’s Brew Slime Favours

10 / 30 / 18

Witch s Brew Slime Favours | Mama Papa Bubba

I can’t believe Halloween is nearly here…  Didn’t we just start the school year?!  Miss G and I haven’t talked about brining something to share with her classmates this year {yet at least – I’m guessing this little tradition just dies off as the kids get older…?}, but we made these witch’s brew slime favours last year and they were such a huge hit!

Witch’s Brew Play Dough Kit

Oh how I love putting together play dough kits!  After years and years of them being one of our play staples {as well as our go-to homemade gift}, Miss G sort of moved onto really loving other types of play around the time Sam was born {#sadday}.  Then when Sam was finally ready for it, we stuck with our taste-safe baby play dough and our go-to no-cook play dough for a long while before moving onto full-on play dough kits with loads of fun loose parts included, so it’s been a minute.  Recently we’ve done a really awesome Little Blue Truck play dough kit {which I’ll be sure to share soon} as well as an autumn spice dough with whole spices, but this witch’s brew play dough kit is our newest kit and it’s been oh so much fun.

To make it, I started out by making three separate batches of our go-to super squishy, no-cook play dough.  This time around, I skipped the Kool-Aid and Frosting Creation packs and simply made unscented doughs in vibrant Halloween-inspired colours using my favourite Wilton gel colourings.

Then it was off to our Halloween bin downstairs to find some fun loose parts to add to our kit.  Here’s what Sam and I found {all purchased at Dollarama in previous years}…  Some small plastic rats, mini spiders, flies, and ants, some purple bats, and some monster googly eyes.

Of course a play dough kit means a GLIS divided container from Ikea, so we dug one of those out too.  {Seriously one of my very favourite things to buy at Ikea.  So much so that I always keep a few extras on hand for gifts and fun projects.}

Alright, so here’s how we organized our kit!   Our freshly made play dough in one of the big spots {I’d first place this in a big zip-close bag if giving the kit as a gift or storing it for any amount of time as the containers aren’t air-tight}…

Our little creepy loose parts in the small slots in the front…

And some mini ‘cauldrons’ {aka apple sauce containers} and some play kitchen utensils for stirring the brew along the side.

We also tucked our rats in with the cauldrons and utensils as that’s where we had space.

Here’s the finished kit!  Wouldn’t this make a lovely gift when paired with a copy of Room on the Broom?  Especially for a kiddos with a birthday or party around Halloween?  I also love the idea of making these and gifting them to your child’s preschool or Kindergarten class… I mean which teacher wouldn’t appreciate a ready-made sensory activity for her munchkins to enjoy??

The best thing about play dough kits like these?  ANYTHING GOES.

Miss G opted to use one of the big cauldrons we use for Halloween goodies for her witches brew…

And Sam stacked his brew up nice and high and layered creepy crawlies in between.

When they were done, the kiddos removed the little bits and bobs from the play dough, sorted them back into the container {awesome sorting practice for kiddos Sam’s age}, and I popped the play dough into a zip-close bag before putting it back into our divided container and closing it up.
