I love to cook – but I also love science!
Here is a fun way to use both - it is called Kool-Aid Playdough!
Ask your Mom to get these items:
- 1 1/4 cup flour
- 1/4 cup salt
- 1 pkg unsweetened Kool-aid (just the dry koolaid, don’t mix it into juice)
- 1 cup boiling water
- 1 1/2 Tbsp vegetable oil
And then do this:
- In a bowl, mix flour, salt and kool-aid.
- Stir in water and oil
- Knead with hands for about 5 minutes.
- Store in ziploc bag for up to 2 months.
- Use like playdough.
- Smells wonderful and takes on the color of the Kool-Aid
I love the smell and love the mess I can make!
Have you made this? Can you share pics? I like to see the colors!




My name is Rachel and this is my site! I wanted a website where I can meet other kids who love to cook like me and where I can share great articles, videos and cooking related things.
