Kinetic Sand Recipe

Equipment

  • 1 Mixing Bowl
  • 1 Mixing Spoon
  • Measuring Cups

Materials

  • 2 ½ cup fine play sand (any color works!)
  • 1 ½ cup cornstarch
  • ½ cup vegetable oil

Instructions

  • Add 2 ½ cups of play sand and 1 ½ cups of cornstarch into a mixing bowl. Stir well to evenly distribute everything.
  • Slowly mix in the ½ cup oil.
  • Use your hands to knead the mixture until it’s fully combined and has a soft, moldable texture. If it’s too dry, add a tiny bit more oil. If it’s too wet, sprinkle in a little more cornstarch.
  • Let the sensory play begin!
