I love that Rosie and Jewel could make this play dough themselves and then play with it! Marshmallow dough is taste-safe, making it a great option for small children. It also only takes minutes to prepare!
Marshmallow Dough Recipe (per color)
- 6 large marshmallows
- 3 tbsp of corn starch
- 2 tsp coconut oil (Other oils will also work)
- Food coloring (Several drops)
Method
- Combine all of the ingredients together in a microwave-safe bowl, and heat until the marshmallows expand (roughly 30 seconds)
- Carefully remove the bowl from the microwave, and combine the ingredients as much as you can using a spoon. Then, once the ingredients are cool enough finish mixing and kneading the dough together with your hands
- After a bit of mixing you will have the most delightfully squishy and stretchy play dough! If the dough is at all sticky simply add a little more corn starch and mix it in. Repeat the above steps for each color of play dough you wish to make
Marshmallow dough smells amazing and is so fun!
It has a delightful, silky texture
And I love that it is taste-safe. Rosie and Jewel enjoyed sampling the homemade play dough they made themselves
but they definitely loved playing with it more!
Since this is our first time making this play recipe I am not really sure how long it will last, but I wouldn't imagine keeping it longer than a day or two. Have fun!
