It's time for some good, cheap fun. We're making salt dough, folks.
Morgan shows us the salt.
She looks a little too happy about the salt if you ask me.
Salt dough is super easy to make:
Dissolve 1-1/4 cups of salt in 2/3 cup of warm water.
Then mix in 1-1/4 cups of flour.
That's it.
And with equal amounts of salt and flour, no kid in their right mind will want to eat this. It's yucky.
Well, you should probably knead it a little.
And then roll it out. Flour your rolling pin if it starts to stick.
Have at it. Create! Create!
Morgan had a great time making little food for her dollies.
Hotdog!
Put the dough in a 210F degree oven for an hour.
Turn the oven off. Leave the dough in it for another hour.
It will harden.
If you haven't used all your dough, save some for later, alligator.
And then, if you've got the notion, go ahead and paint the baked and dried dough with acrylic paint.
