I used to make this for my daughters when they were little. It's non-toxic and the gunk washes out easily. Adults have just as much fun, if not more.

I made this often as a preschool teacher and now make it regularly with my own children. Smells great and you can vary the colours depending on which flavour kool-aid you choose. My little girls current favourite is grape as it makes "purple playdough!" At Christmas we make it red or green and add peppermint extract and glitter! Orange at Halloween and we even found some Halloween coloured glitter.Pick up some seasonal cookie cutters from the dollar store and your all set. Lots of possibilities and FUN!

Tips

  • When making the Kool-Aid play dough, it's important to use unsweetened Kool-Aid powder. This will ensure that the play dough is not too sticky or clumpy.
  • If you want to make a large batch of Kool-Aid play dough, you can double or triple the recipe. Just be sure to use a large enough bowl to mix everything together.
  • Kool-Aid play dough can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks. However, it's best to use it within a few days of making it.
  • If the play dough becomes too dry, you can add a little bit of water to it and knead it until it's smooth again.
  • If the play dough becomes too sticky, you can add a little bit of flour to it and knead it until it's no longer sticky.
  • Kool-Aid play dough can be used for a variety of activities, such as molding, sculpting, and stamping. It can also be used to make ornaments, jewelry, and other crafts.
