Jenny sent me a link to glitter dough several weeks ago, and it occurred to me that this would fit in well with this week’s theme. Blue playdough + silver glitter = starry, starry night.

We started with “Berry Blue” flavored Kool-Aid – I used our usual playdough recipe. That seemed a little greenish, so we added “Grape”.

That looked a tiny bit bluer, so I cooked it.

And it turned out to be just about the perfect shade of blue. I dumped a ton of glitter in it and kneaded it for a bit.

The girls had a blast playing with this stuff. And although most of the glitter stayed put, they’re both a little sparkly. They don’t mind one bit!

I love the glitter!
