I have heard of making playdoh out of flour and salt but never out of Jello. After they make whatever they are going to make with the dough, you can put it in the oven at 200 for about 1 hour and then they can have it forever!
And smelling like watermelon the kids don't eat it? ;o) I used to make huge amounts of home made playdough for the boys. Just the flour, mineral oil and salt variety with food coloring. It's so much nicer than the store stuff and so cheap! I love this idea...will try it someday when the grandbaby is old enough. ;o)
they haven't eaten it yet;) We made grape playdough today with kool aid. it smells so good
