I have another idea.

Searching for more stuff to make instead of buying, I found a recipe for playdoh.  I have never made my own playdoh.  I know people who have, but I haven't.  I think maybe tomorrow the girls and I should make some playdoh.  I found an interesting recipe here.

SMELLY PLAY DOUGH 

• 1 cup flour
• 1 cup salt
• 2 pkg. unsweetened Kool-Aid
• 3 Tbls. cooking oil
• 1/2 cup boiling water

Children can mix dry ingredients if you wish. Add oil. Pour in boiling water. Mix. I continue to mix and knead with my hands. When mixture is cool enough, children can knead an begin playing immediately. I store in a plastic container with a lid. Contributed by Mrs. Mari
