iPad Doh

One of my cute nephews (I have many) just celebrated his 15th birthday! Whenever you ask him what he wants as a gift, he ALWAYS says "money." Not because he's greedy. Because he's always saving for something really cool, like his iPod Touch, or his laptop. This year, he was saving up to buy the new iPad 3. My very creative sister (his mom) came up with such a fun way to give him money. She gave him "iPad Doh."

I have to admit...it took us all a minute to figure out this was no ordinary "Play-Doh." The overlays she made that said "iPad-Doh" were so realistic! It looked awesome.

Somehow, she even got all the tubs of dough out, replaced their labels, and put them back in the original package so he had to open it like it was new.

He finally figured there must be something inside the tubs, so he opened them one-by-one.

 
Inside each tub of Play-Doh was a tightly-rolled $20 bill wrapped in colored plastic wrap. So...(drum roll)...it really WAS iPad doh! Seriously cute. I'm thinking this would work for lots of money gifting occasions. "Prom-Doh" "Camp-Doh" "Disney-Doh"...you get the idea. Thanks for letting me share your amazing idea Carrie!
