PlayDough Recipes

This upcoming Sunday is our last class of Sunday school. I wanted to give the kids a gift since I won’t have them next year. I found a cute idea online but wanted to tie it in to Sunday School and God somehow, any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

It was great having you in my class this year.
You will always have a special place in my heart.
Please stop by to visit me next year.
Here are a few goodies to use over your summer break.
A lollipop, to remind you how sweet you are!
A band aid for one of those summer ouchies!
A play dough recipe card, so you can make play dough on a rainy summer day!
Bubbles to blow on a day that’s too hot to run and play.
A book marker, so you don’t lose your page when you are reading.
A pencil & eraser, so you can write a letter to me.
Hugs and Kisses, for those times you need them!

I just would like to improvise and have it pertain more to Sunday school and God rather than regular school and summer’s out.

Oh, I have about 16 students so if you have any other ideas that would be cute and somewhat inexpensive, please let me know! Thanks in advance!!
also, I teach 4 & 5 year olds, thought that might be a helpful tip.

if you do, could yo give me the recipe for oatmeal play clay or any other recipes for play dough or clay?? THANKS

here are the specs i got from my teacher’s page:

Solar System Model Specifications – 4 grades for 3rd grading period due the first week after Spring Break. Any handed in later will lose points and grade value. . (1 extra grade for turning it in before Spring Break.)
(2 person Maximum/group)

1-Maximum total height 24 inches unless previously authorized by Dr. Glatzer. (VERY IMPORTANT NOT TO EXCEED THESE SIZE SPECS, unless previously authorized by Dr. Glatzer)
2-When sitting on a surface the whole model should not take up more than 15 x 15 inches square.
3-Remember Pluto has been demoted to a planetoid.
4-No edible food products. This type material gets moldy and attracts
critters (roaches, etc).
5-Use parts that are strong such as those made of wood, rubber, paper mache or plastic “spheres”. I don’t encourage the use of Styrofoam so use only if no other choice. Styrofoam models fall apart easily.
6-Avoid materials like clay or Playdough which are too soft and heavy to hold to
it cant be made out of styrofoam and i need it very soon

i need a mix that i can play around with like bread dough. i have to roll it up and everything. does anyone have a good recipe for that? and is you have a great frosting recipe, that will be great too! please help!

DNA Model Specifications – 4 grades for 3rd grading period due the latest before Spring Break. Any handed in later will lose points and grade value.
(2 person Maximum/group)

1-Maximum height 24 inches unless previously authorized by Dr. Glatzer.
2-6 nucelotide minimum (the DNA building unit)
3-The nitrogenous base pairs are as follows:
Adenine (A) pairs up with Thymine (T)
Guanine (G) pairs with Cytosine (C))
4-No edible food products. This type material gets moldy and attracts
critters (roaches, etc).
5-Suggestions for parts that are strong are those made of wooden (beads), or plastic or light metals.
6-Avoid materials like clay or Playdough which are too soft and heavy to hold together well. They fall apart quickly and very easily.
7-All parts must be COLOR CODED with a COLOR KEY for each part.
8-Creativity and sturdiness are a big part of the grade. Your project must be able to stand securely with good self-support. Some kind of a frame or strong center pole as in a spiral staircase works well.
9-Purchased model kits will not be given a good grade because of the lack of creativity and effort to create something original.
10 Think of the double helix of DNA as a rope ladder that is twisted like a spiral staircase. The rope part is the Sugar-Phosphate “backbone” and the steps are the pairs of nitrogen bases. (A-T or G-C)
