When Sea Star Sparkle sent me an assortment of sunscreens, I thought this would be a fun chance to try a unique glittery, fragrant sunscreen playdough. 

This recipe is easy and requires no cooking. It comes together in a matter of moments to create a fun way to have hand on play, with ingredients you may have at home.

I used Very Berry Scented sunscreen. I love that it is made with eco friendly glitter and the scent really adds something special to this playdough! It makes for a totally pleasant sensory experience between the soft dough, eye catching glitter and delicious fragrance!

Ingredients:

1/2 cup of sea star sparkle eco friendly sunscreen

Water; several tablespoons

Neon Food Coloring

1- 1.5 cups of flour 

Directions:

Place 2 tablespoons of water and 1 cup of water in a medium mixing bowl.

Add a few drops of food coloring and 1/2 cup of sea star sparkle sunscreen to the flour.

Stir until well combined and the contents begin to clump.

At this point, you will decide if you need to add additional flour. If the mixture feels sticky, add an additional 1/4 cup of flour, and continue to stir.

When the flour has been incorporated, test for stickiness. 

Add additional flour if needed

When the playdough is not sticky, it is ready to play with!

Store in an airtight container when not in use.

When you are not playing with the dough, be sure to store it in an airtight container for up to a week.
