I went to a local play group with my toddler daughter, and we enjoyed playing with the (what I thought was commercial) play dough there. I wondered how they managed to afford such large quantities. The answer was - it was home made! It's a fantastic recipe, far better than any other I've tried. Hope you enjoy it.
Ingredients:
2 cups flour
2 tablespoons cream of tartar
2 tablespoons oil
1 cup salt
2 cups water
3 drops glycerine
food coloring
Directions:
1. Mix dry ingredients together in a microwavable bowl.
2. Add water, oil and food colouring and stir well.
3. microwave on HIGH for between 3-6 minutes (30 seconds each if divided into ramekins for different colours). Stir well at 2 minute intervals until a consistency similar to that of mashed potato is achieved.
4. Allow to cool sufficiently before kneading well.
5. Play dough can be stored in an airtight container.
