Kool-Aid Play Dough

I got this from another blog... Chaotic Peace- and I absolutely love it:) It doesn't leave that residue on your hands and it smells great (which my girls loved). We used Pink Lemonade Kool-Aid and got a pretty pale pink that had a faint smell of lemonade:) We will try another flavor next time we need to make some...

Kool-Aid Play Dough
1 1/4 cup flour
1/4 cup salt
1 packet of Kool-Aid mix (unsweetened)*
1 cup boiling water
1 1/2 Tablespoons vegetable oil (I used canola oil and it worked fine)

Mix dry ingredients in large bowl. Add oil to boiling water. Mix water and oil mixture into dry mixture with spoon. Knead with hands for about 5 minutes adding flour to make it workable- you may need up to another half cup or more... just kneed in flour until it is no longer sticky. Store in air tight container.

*The flavor of the kool-aid determines the color of your dough. Remember to only use the little flavor packet…not the big packs with the sugar added. Any type of kool-aid/flavored drink mix will work.
