CRAFT DOUGH FOR ORNAMENTS
My four-year old had great fun with this ornament recipe this holiday season; in fact, we had to make several batches. The ornaments are very smooth, perfect for painting. I had the most success when I halved the recipe and didn't leave it too long to cool, just long enough to handle. While it made perfect smaller ornaments, I had some cracking as they dried when I used the dough to make larger handprint ornaments.

Steps:
- Mix baking soda and cornstarch in a pot.
- Add 1 1/4 cold water.
- Stir and bring to boil; continue stirring one minute until consistency of mashed potatoes.
- Place dough on cutting board and cover w/ damp cloth.
- Cool then knead, roll into shapes or cut w/ cookie cutter on waxed paper. (My first batch was a dream to roll, for my second I used extra cornstarch to roll.)
- Allow to dry. (I let them air dry on cookie sheets covered with wax paper over several days, turning once a day.)
- Paint.
- Remember to make a hole to hang on a hook or ribbon.
