St. Patrick's Day Kool-Aid Play Dough Recipe

1 cup flour
1 cup water
1/2 cup salt
1 package Kool-Aid (.13 ounce, lemon lime flavor)
2 teaspoons cream of tartar
2 Tablespoons vegetable oil
gold glitter
pipe cleaners in every color of the rainbow (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple)


Whisk the dry ingredients (flour, salt, cream of tartar, and dry Kool-Aid crystals) together in a heavy bottomed saucepan.
Add the wet ingredients (water and oil).
Stir the mixture together over medium heat until mixture thickens and a ball begins to form.  Turn off heat.
Turn dough out onto a floured surface and knead, adding flour to hands and surface as needed.
Cool dough completely and store in a zip-lock bag or other air-tight container.
Knead gold glitter into green dough.  Explore with rainbow colored pipe cleaners.
Use a variety of tools (rolling pin, pizza cutter, garlic press, empty tins, tongs, etc.) to explore with dough.
