Play Doh Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1 cup plain flour

• 1 cup water

• 1/2 cup salt

• 1 tablespoon of oil - (any oil will do, even baby oil)

• 2 tablespoons of cream of tartar

• 2 -5 drops food colouring

Method:

1. Mix all the ingredients into a pan and blend with a whisk.
2. When all ingredients are blended, place the pan on the stove on medium to medium-high heat.
3. You will need to mix continually until the mixture thickens. About 3 to 4 minutes.
4. When the mixture starts to clump and is difficult to mix, take the pan off the stove.
5. Pour the dough on a floured surface and when it is cool enough to handle start kneading (like bread dough).
6. Remove from the floured surface when the dough is no longer sticky. Knead away from the floured surface until all the flour on the dough is absorbed and the dough is smooth and pliable.
7. When totally cool store in plastic wrap or an air tight container.
8. Start playing!!!
