Pumpkin Playdough

Here are the ingredients needed to make your very own, might I add VERY easy, pumpkin playdough . . .
2 1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup salt
3 Tbs. oil
1 Tbs. alum
Pumpkin Pie Spice (as much or as little as you want . . . we used quite a bit)
2 cups boiling water
food coloring
First, let your kids smell the pumpkin pie spice. It smells soooo GOOD!!!
Then, combine all the ingredients except for the boiling water and food coloring. After you have mixed those together, add the boiling water. (I highly recommend leaving this part to an adult)
After you have started to mix in the boiling water, add your food coloring.
Then turn onto a cutting board and knead. It comes together pretty fast. Then let cool for a few minutes and have fun!
What would pumpkin playdough be without halloween cookie cutters?
