Edible Playdough with Peeps and Sprinkles
Young children will love this soft, smooth and edible playdough, creating all sorts of shapes and fun things.
You will need:
- 10oz. of white frosting
- 3 cups of powdered sugar (icing sugar)
- 1 tbsp Yellow sugar sprinkles
- Package of Yellow Peeps
- Large spoon
- Mixing Bowl
- Plate
- Optional: cookie cutters
This dough is super easy to make. First, you will need to gather all your supplies into one place, which will make creating this playdough so much easier. Children will love to help, so having all the supplies within reach is a great idea.
Next, scoop the white icing into the mixing bowl. Mix in 2 1/2 cups of powdered sugar to the icing and mix together well.
This is the most consuming part! If the mixture still seems sticky, slowly add in the last ½ cup of powdered sugar and mix well.
Add the yellow sprinkles and mix well. Form the dough into a ball.
Press down the dough ball.
Sprinkle a few more yellow sprinkles on top of the dough. Add Peeps on top.
The dough is ready for play! Store in an air-tight container when you are finished playing. Use cookie cutters while using playdough, if desired.
Note: You can add more sprinkles as desired as the kids are playing with the dough for sensory play. Kids can watch how the colors blend in with the dough and change.
