First DIY:Organic Play-dough You Can Eat?!
Okay codegreeners for the first DIY project I found an organic Plato recipe from an awesome website called funathomewithkids.com that not only is really cheap,easy to make, and Eco-friendly, but is edible! As well, the dough is gluten free so those with a gluten problem have no reason to fear. This recipe only requires four items that can be found in most households and is very fun to create. You will need:
-1 Cup of Corn Starch
– 1 Cup of Baby Rice Cereal
-1/2 a cup or 4 oz. of unsweetened applesauce
-3 Ts. of Vegetable Oil
If the dough is to dry and breaking apart at first then add a little water which should help bring the dough together:)
You can add Eco-friendly food dye if you would like to have color in your dough and you can make the dough last up to 6-9 days by placing it in the fridge. You can then heat it up for 10-15 seconds in the microwave if it becomes to hard. I was very impressed with how the dough felt and it tasted like applesauce! Please check out the website www.funwithkidsathome.com to find more projects and Eco- friendly crafts to do with kids and others while at home. I recommend this recipe to everyone!
