Homemade playdough recipe

    Today, the boys wanted me to make them play-dough. They only asked me to make one color and it was blue they wanted.   This is my favorite recipe. Once they are done playing, I put it back into baby food containers. I always save my baby's plastic food containers especially now with the holidays coming up. It makes a great gift idea. Stack  3 together with different colors of play-dough and wrap them up on a clear wrap and bow it! Makes a great stocking gift!

Here is the recipe

1 cup flour

1 cup water

1/4 cup salt

2 tsp. cream of tartar

1 Tbl spoon. vegetable oil

food coloring (I used 4 drops)

Just dump all the ingredients into your pot and give them a good stir. Put your pot on the stove and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it forms into a ball.As soon as it joins into one big glob, take it off the heat and dump it onto your counter or on some wax paper.  Wait for it to cool, then knead it a few times until it is nice and soft.  Then let your kid enjoy the homemade play-dough!!
