This is a great dough for kids to make scultures with. We especially like it since we live near the beach and have an abundance of sand! 
Mix 4 cups of sand, 2 cups of cornstarch, 1 1/2 TBSP cream of tartar, and 3 cups of hot water in a saucepan. Cook over medium heat and stir constantly until it begins to thicken to the point that you can no longer stir. Allow the dough to thoroughly cool before handling. Mold the clay or use a flexible mold. Clay air dries within 1 week or may be placed in the oven at 350′ for approximately 15 minutes – allow to cool fully before handling.
