Play-Doh Sparkle Compound Collection

Product Information

The ingredients for play-dough are very basic…vegetable oil, cream of tartar, salt, flour, and water. The fun thing about this recipe is you can keep adding glitter as it gets absorbed into the playdough so it never loses its sparkle. Two of our all time favorites are this playdough recipe no cream of tartar and our 2 ingredient dough.

If you have countertops that you adore, you’ll probably want to do this on a mat of some sort. My counters have seen better days, and while that means they’re kind of ugly, one upside is that I don’t have to be super careful with them! The best thing about playdough is that it is a brilliant tool to help develop a child’s fine motor skills as well as letting their imagination run wild.For loads of cool playdough recipe variations, scroll down!

So, for our monthly craft, we decided to make our own play-dough. I’m so glad I committed to doing this and blogging about it, because I know for certain I would not have gotten around to this yesterday otherwise! My kids love playdough and while we love the smell of store bought playdough, we usually prefer to make our own. From our Easter Carrot Playdough to our Grinch Playdough, this sparkly galaxy playdough has been added to our collection of fun modeling play. We found this idea over at The Kids Activities Blog, which is filled with fun activities for your kids! We decided we wanted to use our favorite playdough recipe to recreate this out of this world playdough. Place the playdough on a piece of parchment or wax paper and allow to cool to the touch. Once it’s cool to the touch add your corresponding glitter to the playdough and mix until it’s fully incorporated.I acquired these vintage tins a while ago and I am completely in love. Although I only just recently discovered that they are the perfect size for pretend play. We are excited to have a few added to our play dough bin. Now on to our glittery rainbow play recipe!
