Blast off into outer space with this homemade play dough recipe inspired by The LEGO^® Movie 2: The Second Part, in theaters February 8. We can't wait to join Emmet, Lucy, Batman, and our other LEGO friends on their galactic adventure!

My family is so excited for The LEGO Movie 2 that we couldn't wait to play with our LEGO Movie 2 mini figures and pretend to blast off into outer space with Emmet, Lucy, and Batman!

The much-anticipated sequel reunites the heroes of Bricksburg in an all new action-packed adventure to save their beloved city. 

It's been five years since everything was awesome and the citizens are now facing a huge new threat: LEGO DUPLO^® invaders from outer space, wrecking everything faster than it can be rebuilt. The battle to defeat the invaders and restore harmony to the LEGO universe will take Emmet (Chris Pratt), Lucy (Elizabeth Banks), Batman (Will Arnett) and their friends to faraway, unexplored worlds, including a strange galaxy where everything is a musical. It will test their courage, creativity and Master Building skills, and reveal just how special they really are.

Here's what you need to make Outer Space Play Dough:

• 2 cups flour
• 1/2 cup salt
• 2 Tbsp cream of tartar
• 2 Tbsp vegetable oil
• 1 1/2 cups boiling water
• Black liquid watercolor
• Gold glitter
• Gold star confetti

In a large bowl, mix together the flour, salt, cream of tartar and vegetable oil. Pour in the boiling water and stir until a dough starts to form. Take the dough out of the bowl and start to knead it to form the play dough. 

Knead the black liquid watercolor into the dough until it reaches the desired color. 

Add glitter and star confetti and knead to mix it throughout. 

Store in an airtight container for up to one week.

We decided to share our Outer Space Play Dough with our LEGO-loving friends, so I made some printable tags to go onto some small containers.

I cut out the circles and placed on the lids of some plastic jars. My son loved giving these to friends at school. They would also make great class valentines or party favors. 

Outer Space Play Dough is the perfect addition to LEGO play. It gives a fun and sparkly backdrop to the adventures of Emmet, Lucy, and Batman!
