Have you ever made your own play-dough? It’s easy to make playdough at home. And it’s a great activity for kids. It’s fun for them to get involved in the process and it is not as messy as you would think. The recipe is quick and easy and you probably have all the ingredients in your pantry. I found the idea on Pinterest. It is from this website (http://www.childcentralstation.com/2013/03/homemade-play-dough.html).
What you will need: 3 cups flour, 1.5 cups salt, 6 tsp. cream of tarter, 3 tbsp. oil, 3 cups water, food coloring
Mix all the ingredients in a big pot and stir over medium heat for about 2 minutes until the dough forms by pulling away from the sides.
Knead the dough into balls until it gets the consistency of play-dough. Place the dough in plastic bags and add food coloring. I think this is the most fun part of this activity- squishing the food coloring into the dough.
Make playdough at home and have fun!
Thanks for sharing! I will plan on making this with my little sweet pea soon!!
