Switch to Desktop/Mobile View

4 cups of flour
1 cup salt
Food coloring
Water

1. Mix all the ingredients together in large bowl. Add water to get desired dampness.

2. Take half of the salt dough and gently flatten with palm of your hand. Keep it thick.

3. Ask your child to make handprints in the dough. You can do the same with little feet. Write the child’s name and the date on the back with a toothpick. Allow to dry for 24 hours.
