在图书馆借了这本Green Crafts for Children，里头的材料都是家中或花园里垂手可得的东西，很环保。
我们要做的第一项劳作是Salt-Dough Letters。我没有字母的饼干模型就改用姜饼人，花朵，圈圈，心和圣诞树吧！
把步骤抄下以便以后作参考：
Materials:
- 300g plain flour
- 300g salt
- 200ml lukewarm water
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- water-based paints and paintbrushes
- mixing bowl and wooden spoon
- measuring jug
- rolling pin and alphabet pastry cutter
- non stick baking tray
- Put 300g of salt into the mixing bowl, pure in the water and mix thoroughly until all the salt is dissolved - doing this before adding the flour will help to create a smoother dough than if it is added at the same time
- Add 300g of flour to the bowl, also pure in the vegetable oil at this time. Stir until the mixture becomes stiff, then knead it with your hands to form a firm dough. Scrape the bowl clean and make the dough into a ball.
- Sprinkle flour onto the work surface and place the ball of dough onto it. Roll the dough out with a rolling pin to an even thickness of about 1cm
- Cut out letters using the cutters and place them onto the tray. Put them in an oven at 100*C for one hour.When hard turn the oven off but leave them inside to cool to help stop the salt dough from cracking.
- Use water-soluble paints and a brush to pain the letters in a variety of bright colors, using whatever color combinations you think works best. When the bas coat is dry add decoration in another color.
我觉得最难是融化盐的步骤。300g的盐要融化在200g的水里，要搅拌很久哦！大B搅到一半就没耐性了。
粉团做好后两个瓜忙着压模型，这样就够他们忙整个早晨了。妈咪可以趁机做家务，嘿嘿！
模型压完就要送进烤箱咯！
为烤好的Salt Dough上妆。妈咪童心未泯的和孩子争画画。
