Playdough


3 c. flour
1 c. salt
6 tsp. cream of tartar
3 c. water
3 Tbsp. vegetable oil
Food coloring

Mix flour, salt, and cream of tartar in a large saucepan. Blend water and oil together in a bowl. Add to the saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until it thickens. Add several drops of food coloring until you get the right color. Cook for about five minutes. Take the play dough out of the saucepan and put it on a cutting board or counter and knead for a few minutes. Add flour if it’s too sticky. This play dough should last around three months if you keep it sealed in an airtight container or Ziploc bag.
