BIG SERVICE PROJECT OPPORTUNITY

We would like 25 of these, one for each 4th grader.
Per Gallon Ziplock Bag
2 cups of fine salt
2 cups of flour
1 cup of water (may add a bit more if needed)
A bit of wallpaper glue (it makes the sculpture more cohesive)

Directions
• In a large bowl, combine the salt and the flour
• Make a well in the salt/flour mixture and add the water
• Knead until smooth and shape into a ball
• Wrap the ball of dough in plastic and put in ziplock baggie.

Additional Tips
To get a softer dough you can add more flour. Adding more salt will lend a more grainy feel. The addition of the wallpaper glue creates a more cohesive dough to work with.
