Kinetic Sand Recipes
Sure, you can buy premade kinetic sand, but half the fun is in making it yourself! Here are two recipes to get you started:
Basic Kinetic Sand
This recipe was created specifically to use as a calming activity for children with special needs. If desired, add a teaspoon of any essential oil for soothing purposes (Also makes it smell really nice!)
Materials
About 10 pounds (5 cups or 4.5 kilograms) of play sand
1.2 cups (1 cup plus 3 tablespoons or 130 grams) of cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon (2.5 milliliters) of standard dishwashing liquid
1 cup (236 milliliters) of water
1 large and 1 medium bowls for mixing
Airtight container for storage
Directions
Place sand in a big bowl.
Add cornstarch to the sand and mix.
In a separate medium bowl, mix dish soap with water.
Add the soap mixture to the sand and combine thoroughly.
Note: Play sand is available at craft stores. It's better for this project than scooping up sand from the playground or beach. Also sand should be completely dry before staring. You can bake it a 1-inch deep layer at 250 degrees Fahrenheit (121 degrees Celsius) for about 30 minutes to ensure total dryness. Then allow to cool completely.
