Who knew Bath Drops made the best playdough? 🌈 We're obsessed with this recipe from @caitlinbigg_ - a five-ingredient kitchen playdough with color payoff that's honestly unreal 😍
If you're after a simple sensory play idea using stuff you probably already have in the pantry, this is it.
What You'll Need
-
1½ cups flour
-
½ cup salt
-
2 tbsp lemon juice
-
1 cup boiling water
-
Honeysticks Bath Drops
-
Sprinkles, for extra fun ✨
How to Make It
Mix your dry ingredients first, then add the lemon juice and boiling water. Stir until it comes together into a dough (an adult's job - the water is hot!). Once it's cool enough to handle, knead in your Bath Drops until you get the shade you're after. A little goes a long way, so start small and build up the color.
Want a rainbow effect? Make a few batches in different colors, then combine and marble them together for a swirled, tie-dye look kids love pulling apart and squishing back together! 👩🏼🎨
Why We Love It
This one ticks every box: it's hands-on, it's colorful, and it turns pantry staples into an afternoon of open-ended play. Kneading, rolling, and squishing dough is great for little hands too - building the same fine motor skills they're using every time they pick up a crayon or paintbrush.
