Yummy smelling play dough for all ages!!
I make this for my kids. The texture is the closest I've found to actual play doh, but it much nicer. The Jello gives it a nice color and it smells fantastic afterwards. I really never cared for the play doh smell, but I could work with this all day.

Step 1The first thing I do is to set out all of the ingredients. If you'd like your dough to be sparkley, you can also add glitter to the ingredients.
-
Step 2Add all dry ingredients (including optional 1-2 tbsp glitter) and mix together. Add the oil and water last.
-
Step 3Mix everything together until smooth. Place pan on stove on low to medium heat.
-
Step 4Stir constantly. Mixture will start to form lumps and begin to pull away from edges. Make sure you keep stirring. This only takes about 5 minutes and it will burn if you are not careful.
-
Step 5Continue to cook until mixture balls up and is no longer shiny. Remove the pan from heat.
-
Step 6Turn the dough out onto a clean solid surface. I use tin foil. The dough will be hot and look a little dry.
(For easier clean-up, fill the pan with hot water immediately.)
-
Step 7Flatten, fold, and knead dough out until it is cool and smooth. It will be hot, but cools off very quickly.
-
Step 8You can add food coloring if you would like, but I like the coloring I get with just the Jello. I find that food coloring stains the kids hands if it's in the dough. We roll ours into balls and store in plastic ziploc bags so that it doesn't dry out.
