jello playdoh

I don't know what got into me the other evening...it was late, time to be winding the children down for bed for sure, but I was so excited to make play doh with the jello for color, that I just couldn't help myself.  It turned out great and smelled good too!

Want to make some?
Here you go...
1 cup water
1/2 cup oil
2 tablespoons cream of tarter
2 tablespoons salt
1 cup flour plus
1 small box jello mix any color

Here's what I did...
warmed the liquid
then mixed in the cream of tarter and salt good (while over heat)
added flour and jello mix
stir while over the heat really good, until it starts to get stiff
take off heat and continue stiring in more flour (a little at a time) until it gets pretty stiff
turn out onto a floured surface and knead in more flour until it is nice and thick and not sticky

Because the children mixed in their own flour we had to go back the next day and knead in more flour because it was to sticky.  Once we did that it was perfect.

Have fun!
