Homemade Play Dough

Playing with Play-doh

This recipe is not to be eaten. :)

What you'll need:

1 c. flour

1/2 c salt

2 tsp. cream of tarter

1 c. water

1 TBS. vegetable oil

Food coloring

1. Combine flour, salt, and cream of tarter in a saucepan. In a bowl, put water, oil, and food coloring. Gradually stir wet ingredients into the dry ones until mixture is smooth.

2. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until a ball forms. Remove from stove and cool.

3. Have your child knead the play dough until smooth. Then, start playing. Store in an airtight container. Dough can last up to 4 months. Repeat for other colors.

Alivia helped me make this yesterday afternoon. Both Addison and Alivia played with this homemade creation for a long time!
