ohhhhhhhhh I love those crayon hearts! Thanks.
As a nanny I was surprised to learn that play-do is in fact, not, a mess-less craft. The little crumbs get all over kids, furniture, and ground into the carpet (also the little ones eat it). Every time I let my kids play with it I feel like I’m vacuuming half the house to get it all up! (Don’t get me wrong it’s great fun but just be forewarned it’s not as mess-less as it appear!)
Mary, point taken. I know firsthand what you are talking about:) I have two little ones and always hate cleaning up the ‘crumbs.’ I think the play-do would be best for an outdoor wedding .. perhaps one that’s a bit more casual.
