Jello Play Dough Recipe

This receipe was submitted by Cathy Heine. Thanks Cathy!

1 Cup of flour
1/2 cup of salt
1 cup of water
1 tbsp oil
2 tsp Cream of Tartar
1 (3.5 oz) pkg of jello
(generic works just as good)

In a pot, mix all ingredients together and cook over medium heat.
Stir constantly untill it is the consistency of mashed potatoes.
Let cool and then knead with flour until no longer sticky.

Whatever color the jello is the color the playdough will be.
It is edible but as my girls and I found out, it tastes really bad.

What a great meeting!

Wow! We had a great meeting tonight with more than 5 new moms. We also got to enjoy a wonderful Christmas Expo. Lots of fun things to buy and look through! We have some VERY talented MOPS moms.

Can't wait for the next meeting on December 8th!
