DIY AROMATHERAPY PLAY DOUGH

DIY Aromatherapy Play Dough

9/19/2022

I have always loved playing with play dough as a child (I still do). I find it extremely relaxing and therapeutic and adding essential oils just takes playing with dough to whole new level of fun, for young and old.

I suggest you start out with oils such as Serenity, Balance, Lavender and Peppermint.

Aromatherapy Play Dough

Ingredients:

• 2 cups flour
• 2 cups coloured water
• 1 cup salt
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 teaspoon cream of tartar
• 5 drops of essential oils

Instructions:

Combine all ingredients, except for essential oils, in a large saucepan and stir until combined.
Once combined, put over medium heat. Using a spatula, continue to stir ingredients together until it forms a ball.
Note: Don’t overcook as it will lead to dry play dough.
Remove from heat and cool on baking paper.
Once cool, add five drops of your favourite essential oil and knead until thoroughly combined.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for months of fun.
