Red and gold are lucky colours associated with CNY so you could make your playdough in those colours

red and gold glitter would be good, it's feely too!!!!!!!!!!
you could use chopsticks to play with it, beware of smelly playdough, we made it with cocoa powder and kids just kept trying to eat it :( :laughing:

Sounds good to me although I had a thought... be careful with the lo's putting their hands near their eyes if it's spice it may irritate or sting.

just make the dough and add as much or as little glitter as you want, you can just knead it in after its made
