Kool-Aid Playdough

This playdough smells so yummy and it was so easy to make.  The best part is that you DON'T have to walk around for a week with stained hands.
 It's was nice NOT to use cream of tartar and it turned out really soft, just like the real thing.
 Just store it in a plastic bag and keep it in the fridge until you are ready to use it.
Thank- you Pink and Green Mama for this really cool recipe.
1 cup flour
1/2 cup salt
3 teaspoons of oil
1 small package of Kool- Aid
1 cup boiling water
Mix the dry ingredients in a bowl and then add oil and boiling water (the boiling part is important).
Mix it all together and knead on a piece of waxed paper.
The first time I made this I added too much oil and had to add some extra flour and it turned out fine.
Do this for each color. ENJOY!
