THE BEST HOMEMADE PLAYDOUGH EVER



The Best Homemade Playdough Ever image

I got this recipe from astay-at-home mom's blog named Robin's song. It is far superior to any storebought. I make the recipe with a third of these measurements because it is a huge batch of just one color. I put a drop of peppermint extract in, it covers any floury, pasty smell. Use regular table salt for this, once I only had kosher salt in the house and the dough was a bit grainy. Please note, this is safe and non-toxic but not edible playdough.

Yield 2 pounds of dough

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 cups flour
1 1/2 cups salt
3 cups water
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon cream of tartar
food coloring

Steps:

  • Place all ingredients into a large saucepan and cook over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until the dough pulls away from the sides of the pan and gets too thick to stir (about 10-15 minutes). Remove from heat and let cool until it can be handled. Place on counter or wax paper and knead several times until smooth. Store in an air-tight container.

THE BEST PLAY DOUGH RECIPE



The Best Play Dough Recipe image

This recipe is from my children's preschool art teacher. This truly is the best ever playdough recipe. It will last for several months in an airtight container. No refrigeration is needed. In addition to the food coloring you can add extracts or spices to give it different smells, though these can change how much flour you need to add.
