The recipe I followed was:
1 C Flour
1 C Water
1/4 C Salt
1 Tbsp Vegetable Oil
2 Tsp Cream of Tarter
A Kool-Aid Packet of Your Choice
Combine all ingredients & stir over medium heat until it forms
The Playdough Set we scored, with unopened play dough even included!
Abunch of household ingredients & you are set!
The crazies picked out the colors they wanted to mix
Pour all of the ingredients in a pot, in no particular order, as long as they all make it in.
Stir, stir, stir until it is no longer lumpy but smooth. Kids can do this part too!
It should look mostly smooth. You put it over medium heat & stir.
It will become thick & lumpy. Keep stirring.
And then it'll turn thick like play dough should. Place it on the counter to knead.
After it cools, knead it. Again, kids can do this, as long as it's cooled off. D preferred to do it with the wheel.
And you are set! It makes a good-size portion so I just split each color in-between my 2 crazies.
And they went to town with the tools... making shapes, rolling, cutting...
These guys were "behind the mountain in the field"... love my Army brats!
When they were done, I placed all of the dough in a container & we shall see if it keeps. They had fun & certainly played with it over an hour!
