Do any of you work with kids? Have kids? Know kids that you spend time with? Well, if you answered yes to any of those questions, here is a really fun activity! MAKE PLAYDOUGH WITH THOSE KIDDOS!
Here is the recipe:
COOKED PLAYDOUGH
from COOKS.COM
1 c. flour
1/2 c. salt
2 tsp. cream of tartar
1 c. water
2 tbsp. oil
1 tsp. food coloring
1/2 c. salt
2 tsp. cream of tartar
1 c. water
2 tbsp. oil
1 tsp. food coloring
Combine 1 cup flour, 1/2 cup salt and 2 teaspoons cream of tartar in a large saucepan. Gradually stir in 1 cup water mixed with 2 tablespoons oil and 1 teaspoon food coloring. Cook over medium to high heat, stirring constantly until a ball forms. Remove from heat, cool and knead until smooth on wax paper. Store in an airtight container. Children will enjoy playing with the playdough!
I've made it a couple of times for my preschool kiddos at New Futures. I usually kneed in the food coloring instead of mixing it with the other ingredients. Not sure what is best. You'll probably avoid colorful hands if you mix it as the recipe suggests! Definitely try it out, it is really simple, and lasts a long time! :)
