Activity - Dough Art
HERE'S WHAT YOU'LL NEED:
- 2 cups of flour
- 1 cup of salt
- 1 cup of water
- Medium-size mixing bowl, rolling pin, cookie sheet
LET'S GET STARTED:
Mix together the flour, salt and water in a medium-size bowl. Knead several times on a floured board. Roll out the dough to 1/2-inch thickness. Dip cookie cutters in flour and cut out shapes. Place shapes on the cookie sheet. If you wish, carve patterns and designs on the dough with a dull knife.
Bake the cutouts in a 250 degree F oven for about 1 1/2 hours or until dough is hard to the touch. Remove the cutouts from the cookie sheet and cool on a wire rack.
Paint the shapes with tempera or acrylic paints. Let dry.
