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)
Note:  You will also need a microwave

  • 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.  Add more cornstarch as needed.

  • 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 more corn starch and mix it in.  I needed to use quite a bit of cornstarch to get rid of the stickiness from a few of the batches I made.  Repeat the above steps for each color of play dough you wish to make
