Playdough recipes will vary on how long they last, but most will last between 2 weeks and 2 months if you keep them in an airtight container.

This slimy set comprises of two tubs of bright green slime (in two shades), some finger tweezers, a mini bin and, of course, Snotty Scotty. Many of these centre around moulding, cutting or extruding dough into play items designed around a central theme. I walked back into my house and put away the high chair, picked up Cheerio’s, wiped off finger prints and washed sippy cups. EDIT* Lots of people have commented that it worked much better for them to heat the ingredients gently in a pan, stirring until it comes together to form a non-sticky ball.

To make the dough a little firmer and more easily able to handle, we added about 3 spoons of cornflour. I doubled the batch and I will say that when I added two cups, it was very runny, but then I ended up using a whole box of corn (16oz) and it was perfect! To prevent the sparkly galaxy playdough becoming one solid color I would recommend mixing the separate colors as the kids want to play. These sets are ideal for older children, or for those who are very interested in a particular theme.

Then put in small containers with small Christmas cookie cutters and pass out as a gift for your children’s friends. Roll the playdough around in the dough and knead it together with the colour so that it all blends into the dough adding a sparkle throughout.

You can even find ones to monitor their room and bath, or kits containing different types of thermometers for all kinds of uses.Do this by sprinkling the powder slowly over your water and observing the changes, you want it to form a squishy substance that’s quite thick.
