play dough for the kids

today I thought I would give you a recipe for play dough, this is great and easy to make.

Play dough

mix in a medium pot:

1 cup white flour

1/4 cup salt

2 Tbsp. cream of tartar

combine and add:

1 cup water

1/4 tsp vegetable food coloring

1 Tbsp. oil

cook over medium heat and stir ( about 3 to 5 minutes)
it will look like a "globby" mess. you will be sure that it is not turning out....but it will. when it forms a ball in the center of the pot, turn out and knead on a lightly floured surface. Store in and air tight container or plastic bag. this is edible but not tasty.
