Today I made homemade play-dough for my two youngest sisters, Sophia and Angelise. It's very fun to make homemade - especially in winter-because the play-dough is hot, and is like a massage to the hands. Mom used to make it for us older girls when we were little. :)
The Recipe Is:
1 cup water
1/2 cup salt
1 Table-Spoon vegetable oil
2 tea-spoons cream of tartar
several drops of food coloring
1 cup of white flour
And away you go! Heat the first 4 ingredients in a pan on the stove until it boils (stirring constantly) . . . take it off the heat and mix in the food coloring. Stir fast as you add the flour and then scoop out onto a floured counter and knead for a minute or two. (It will be hot, but your hands will adjust)
There you have it! Fun fun fun! I would advise using red or green food coloring . . . I tried to make a nice yellow play-dough but it ended up not yellow at all. Just the color of butter cookies. The food coloring won't stain your hands.
Sorry there is no pic's. My sisters took the cameras for the weekend. :)
God bless! Merry Christmas!
