Homemade Kool-Aid Play Dough Recipe
Make a batch of playdough in just five minutes with your microwave and Koolaid. Yup, that’s right I said Koolaid. It adds the bright color and makes it smell delicious to play with! Once it’s made it can be stored in an air tight container for future use.
Supplies:
1 cup of flour
1/4 cup of salt
1 teaspoon of Cream of Tartar
1 tablespoon of vegetable oil
2 Koolaid packets
3/4 cup of water
Directions:
Mix all the ingredients into a bowl and stir them until they are all wet and mixed.
Put your bowl into the microwave for 50-60 seconds. Stir the edges of your bowl and then let it sit for a minute to set. With a spatula stir the dough and then scrape it out of the bowl.
Add another tablespoon of flour to your table surface and dump the dough onto it. Work the play dough until it is elastic.
NOTE: While all the ingredients in this recipe are “edible” we do not advise people to eat the dough. Kids can easily get sodium toxicity from eating homemade dough. Please encourage your kids to keep this OUT of their mouths!
