Kids Play Dough Clay

This is a great Rainy Day project

You'll need
1 cup salt
1/3 cup water
1/2 cup cornstarch
1/4 cold water
food coloring (any color)
Mix salt and 1/3 cup water in saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally for about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat add cornstarch and 1/4 cup cold water, adding few drops of food coloring. It should be really lumpy! Stir till it thickens, cool, then knead on a cutting board that has been dusted with cornstarch. Store in a Tupperware container with a damp cloth for moisture. Break out the cookie cutters and your little ones will be busy for awhile so you can relax! Or do laundry, or load the dishwasher, mop the floor :)
