Materials

  • Potatoes
  • Flour
  • Food Colouring

Instructions

  • Bake 5-6 potatoes and allow to cool.
  • Remove the skins.
  • Mash the potatoes. Let the kids help!
  • Add around 3/4 cups of flour for every 1 cup of mashed potatoes. Add the flour gradually kneading the dough as you go. The more you knead the dough, the more malleable/less sticky it will become.
  • Add a few drops of food coloring as you knead to experiment with different colors.
