I've used this recipe for years
Kool-aid Playdoh
2 c. flour
1 c. salt
2 tbsp. cooking oil
4 tsp. cream of tartar
3 pkg. unsweetened Kool-Aid*
2 c. water
1 c. salt
2 tbsp. cooking oil
4 tsp. cream of tartar
3 pkg. unsweetened Kool-Aid*
2 c. water
Mix all ingredients. Cook over medium heat until mixture forms a ball. Dump onto counter and knead (it will be hot initially). Store in airtight container. It lasts for weeks. Makes enough for 4 children.
*Do not use grape kool-aid unless you would like gray playdoh. Strawberry, cherry, lemonaid (add a little extra yellow food color for deeper yellow tint), lemonlime, berry blue and orange all have nice vibrant colors and fruit scents.
