How to Make Dr. Seuss Marshmallow Playdough
Supplies:
- 6 Large Marshmallows
- 5-6 Tbsp Corn Starch (Divided)
- ½ Tbsp Coconut Oil
- Yellow & Blue Food Coloring
- Candy Fish Sweet TartsorSwedishfish
Start by placing the marshmallows in a small microwave safe bowl, and add in 3 tablespoons of corn starch and the coconut oil.
Once you’ve done that, take it and place it in the microwave for 30 seconds. Once done, take out and add 3-4 drops of yellow food coloring. Mix until all the corn starch is incorporated.
Add 2 more tablespoons of cornstarch and knead with your hands. (This is a good step for the kids to help with!)
If it’s still a little sticky, add a tad bit more cornstarch until it’s no longer sticky
and pliable. But don’t add too much. Slowly add so you can add in more as you need.
You should now have a smooth and shiny playdough ball. Yay! It’s time to start having fun!
Roll out and place on the candy fish. Again, this is a great sensory activity for the kids to help with, too!
