Tips & Substitutions
For a smoother play dough, ensure that the water is warm when mixing. If you don't have Kool-Aid, you can substitute it with food coloring for a custom color. Adjust the salt based on your desired texture; more salt will create a firmer dough. Consider adding a few drops of essential oil for a pleasant scent. Always measure your ingredients accurately for the best results.
