Lime Essential Oil Moon Dough Recipe
Squeeze the Fun Out of Play time : Lime Essential Oil Moon Dough Recipe
Sensory Delight: Scented Moon Dough with a Zest of Lime
Ingredients & Supplies
- 4 cups of white flour
- ½ cup of baby oil
- 5-7 drops of lime essential oil
- Mixing Bowl
- Spoon
- Green food coloring, optional
Directions
- In your mixing bowl add the 4 cups of flour and ½ cup of baby oil. Mix well.
- Add 3-4 drops of the green food coloring. Then, add the 5-7 drops of lime oil. Knead the dough so the color disperses.
- Take the mixture into your hands and knead it. The heat from your hands will help form and soften it into shape.
- To use your moon dough, just form the dough in your hand or molds to make a variety of shapes. If the dough is still too crumbly, add a few drops of baby oil at a time until it is the consistency you wish.
- Store your lime moon dough in an air-tight container when not in use and it should stay fresh for weeks.
- Should it lose its consistency, just add a few more drops of baby oil and mix until softened again.
I love this moon dough! I have everything I need. My grandchildren will have ball with this. Thanks!
Such an easy recipe that will smell awesome when used! I’m keeping this for the next time my niece visits!
This moon dough looks like a lot of fun for the kids to get creative with. Surprised by how long it can last too.
That is pretty cool. My boys love playing with mood dough, so I will have to make this for them.
This looked like an amazing product to try. Thank you for sharing the directions. I am looking forward to doing this soon.
I love this and I can’t wait to try out this recipe! I think it would be fun for my kids. I would never ever think to use lime essential oil though so this is pretty neat.
I’ve never made anything like this before! That’s a really cool idea and I can imagine it smells SO good!
Ooh this sounds wonderful! I need to order Lime oil in my next ER!
I might need to try this, I really love using essential oil with good smell like this lime.
Your step by step guide looks so easy! Do you have a finish product photo of it? Thanks!
This is totally new territory for me since I’ve never using Lime oil in my baking. Looks good!
This actually looks super yummy, I would love to try this!
Awh I love the sound of that moon dough. I bet my little one would have a ball making some dough shapes with me.
This sounds interesting indeed and would be so much fun for the kids to play with. I will have to make this with my nieces kids. Thanks for sharing.
This sounds amazing!!! absolutely love the addition of lime…one of my favourite ingredients. I’ve been meaning to make moon dough for quite some time…I might try it this weekend!
I have some lemon essential oil, but I’ve never heard of the lime. I bet it smells amazing. And that moon dough looks like so much fun for the kids.
Oh how cool! Just like others have said I bet this smells wonderful as well. I have got to try this.
I bet my daughter would be thrilled to make this. Thanks for sharing, I will show this to her.
Oh wow, I was curious to give this a try – thanks for the share.
Wow! Those essential oils can really be used for anything! This is really neat. I will have to give it a try! My kids would love it!
I haven’t tried any essential oils… but I have heard so many wonderful testimonies as to why I should! They do intrigue me.
My son loves moon dough! I hadn’t thought of making a lime scented one before so thanks for the idea! Will try this out. 🙂
This is quite a unique project for me. Looks like I can work on it. I just need to find a store where I can get lime essential oil.
My kids I am sure would go over the moon for this!
I have never even heard of moon dough before, is it like a homemade air freshener? Sorry if thats a silly question but it looks like so much fun to make!
Oh fun! My mom made the 70s/80s version of moon dough back in the day. I bet it would have been much more fun if it had lime in it!
I love how easy this is to make! I might have to make some for my brother and sister next time they come over 🙂
That looks super easy to make! I have a ton of different cookie cutters and all of those ingredients on hand, too!
I have never heard of moon dough before, but it looks like it is easy to do at home. I love that you can make the nice shapes with the cutters like that. The kids can have a lot of fun with this as well.
Well – I have everything I need to make this and am going to save the recipe for when we have kids over!
My kids would have a blast with that. I have never made moon dough before
I am just now really getting into essential oils!! Bookmarking this recipe!!
What an interesting recipe. I have never made a lime essential dough before. It looks so easy to make
That is interesting! I’ve never tried making one. Bet it smells good!
I have never made a moon dough before so this recipe is more than welcome. Thanks for sharing
This is a great idea, my girls would definitely love this! Thank you for sharing.
Hum. I have never heard of “moon dough” and even after reading your post I still don’t know what it is. LOL
This is such a great idea. My friends kids would love this. I will have to make some up for the weekend when they come over.
The problem with things like this is sometimes we make them, then I don’t want to let the kids play with it, I want to keep it for myself…
I have never made my own moon dough before. It’s always an intimidating thought for me. I love the idea of being able to scent it though.
That is so neat! I will have to try this bc moon dough is so expensive at the store. Very frugal! Thanks for sharing it!
Wow, not only does that look like fun, I’ll bet it smells great! Found you on the #SewDarnCrafty linky party. Thank you for sharing! If you haven’t already, head on over to our #HomeMattersParty and share there, too!
I will sure have to try this dough, what a great idea! Thanks so much for sharing your post with Full Plate Thursday and have a great day!
Come Back Soon,
Miz Helen
I know I would like the way this smells – I love the fragrance of baby oil and also lime – it sounds like fun and so inexpensive!!
