We went to hang out with some friends last week, and I brought the ingredients to make play doh. This is the same recipe I used to make the play doh for Morgan's Wiggle party back in 2009. For Morgan's party, I used Koolaid for the coloring. This time, I just used food coloring.
Here is what you need:
2 cups flour
2 cups warm water
1 cup salt
2 Tablespoons vegetable oil
1 Tablespoon cream of tartar
food coloring (liquid, powder, or unsweetened drink mix)* mix last
Just mix the items together. I added a little bit more flour as I worked the dough and noticed it was too sticky. Just go by feel as you knead the dough. After the dough is to the right consistency, divide it into separate parts depending on how many different colors you want (We did 4 colors). Make a little indention in the clay with your finger. Then, add a few drops of food coloring. Knead it some more, and add food coloring until it looks the way you want it to.
Store in Ziploc baggies or in an airtight container.
