Hey – I found this on a budgeting site called wisebread!
Recipe for homemade moon sand (1 batch)
6 cups of play sand (I got a 50lb bag from Lowes, it was $4.99 plus tax)3 cups of cornstarch (most dollar stores carry it for $1 per box…you’ll need around 24 boxes for the whole 50lbs!)
1 1/2 cups of cold water
Step one: Mix the water and cornstarch together thoroughly, this will take a few minutes to get it nice and smooth.Step two: Gradually mix in the sand, one cup at a time. You’ll need to really work it in with your fingers.
Step three: Play with it!
Step four: When you’re all done, pop it in an airtight container.Step five: When you next play with it, you’ll need to revive it with 2-3 tablespoons of water. Just sprinkle it over and work it in.
That’s all there is to it. Very cheap, very easy and the kids will get to play with heaps of the stuff. Play sand also comes in different colors, so buy different colored bags to mix things up a little. Have fun!
