Ice cream play dough
This funfetti playdough recipe couldn’t be any easier! Mix together 1/2 can of funfetti frosting and 2 cups of powdered sugar. If it is too dry, add in a spoonful more frosting. If it is too sticky, add a little powdered sugar. We like to make 1/2 batches so we can make several different colors. The extra frosting is great for an impromptu batch of cupcakes 😉
HINT: If you are looking for a big batch you mix one can Funfetti frosting with 4 cups powdered sugar.

Edible playdough
This ice cream playdough is so good you can eat it…. and lucky for your toddler, preschool, kindergarten, and elementary age kiddo – they can literally eat it as it is edible!
Not that I’m advising they eat it all as that would be a LOT of sugar. You still need to use some common sense 😉

this sounds super fun. 2 questions, 1:can I use sugar free icing? If yes, would I 2: can I add a couple of drops of flavoring?
Going to make this with my 7 and 5yo gr. grandsons!! Can’t wait.-
I love experimenting with recipes, I say try it =)

This looks like lots of fun! Have you ever tried it with a different brand of icing (I don’t think I can find this one in Canada)
-
Any kind should work =)
