I made Play Dough the other day for the first time in a really long time.
I was helping my daughter prepare her Sunday Lesson for a bunch of cute kids, and Play Dough was a great aid to get her point across.
It wasn't long after that I read a doTerra Blog about
Play Dough and Essential Oils!
Their recipe required cooking, mine looked similar and much easier.
So here is my tried and true Play Dough Recipe with an
Essential Oil Twist!
Basic Play Dough
2 Cups Flour
2 Cups Clear or Colored HOT Water
1 Cup Salt
2 Tbsp. Oil
4 Tsp. Cream of Tartar
5 Drops Essential Oil
Mix all ingredients and let cool.
Add Essential Oils.
This can be put in Zip Lock bags and kept in the refrigerator!
Remember when Play Dough used to try to smell like the 'color' it was?
Like the purple was grape, and the red was cherry, and the yellow was lemon?
And how HORRIBLE it smelled?
What if the yellow really smelled like Lemon? and the purple like Lavender? And the blue like Peppermint?
How great would it be to give an tired child play Dough that smells like SERENITY?
The possibilities are endless!
