 Mix up a batch of dough and create a fossil imprint.

What You'll Need:

• 4 cups all purpose flour
• 1 cup of salt
• 1 ½ cups water
• Bowl
• Measuring cup
• Small fish object for fossil making

How to Make Fun Fossil Imprints:

Step 1: Measure and mix together the flour, salt, and water to make a salt dough. Knead the dough for five minutes, and form it into small balls. Flatten the balls to prepare them for a fossil print.

Step 2: Make impressions in the dough with the fish toy.

Step 3: Make one print in each flattened ball. Place the fossils on a rack, and let them dry for several days.
