Tip of the Day

March 21, 2012 By Melanie Roberts Leave a Comment

Make your own Moon Sand and let the kids play outside.. TON of FUN!!

image

MOON SAND RECIPE
It is a basic 2 to 1 ratio (sand to cornstarch)

  • 6 cups of play sand ( Crayola has sand in colors)
  • 3 cups of cornstarch
  • 1 1/2 cups of cold water ( or Baby oil)

How to make it:

  1. Begin by mixing the sand and cornstarch together.
  2. Next, add the water and mix it with your hands.  You will have to work it through until you do not see any more cornstarch (white).
  3. Store it in a plastic storage box and it doubles as the Moon Sand Center.

If it begins to dry out, just add a few tablespoons of water until it returns to the proper consistency.
