SAND DOUGH

Steps:

• Shake sand through a flour sifter and mix with cornstarch and hot water in an old pot.
• Cook over low heat, stirring with a wooden spoon.
• When the mixture forms a dough that pulls away from the sides of the pot, spoon it out onto wax paper and let cool.
• Knead well and store in a tightly covered container.
• Cover the work area with wax paper and have the children pat out the sand dough.
• Use cookie cutters to make different shapes.
• Allow to air dry in the sun until hardened.
