What do you need?
6 cups of sand
1.5 cup of cornflour
2 teaspoons of washing up liquid
(if the sand is very dry add some water)
Kinetic sand is a lot of fun to play with, in autumn and winter there is a lot of indoor playing going on with it. It cleans up easier than loose sand although we are not difficult about a bit of mess ;) It is a shame that it costs 18.00 euros per kilo because a kilo is not so much to play with. That is why we also make it ourselves, although we have to say it does not play as well as the kinetic sand that you buy. If you want to make it yourself, read here how to do it.
Measure the amount of sand and put it in a big bowl.
Firmly stir the cornstarch into the sand.
Stir in the dishwashing detergent as well.
If the sand is too dry add tablespoons of water.
When the sand has become to moist spread it out and allow it to dry overnight.
The mini-monsters have so much fun playing with the sand! Sometimes it is made into a building site but then again dinosaurs walk through it :)
