Play Dough Recipe

Here is my MOST FAVORITE recipe for play dough.
You can add all sorts of things to this to have a different sensory play each time. I love this because it is made of items already in my pantry making it a simple last minute play time tool.




The basic recipe is as follows:

2 Cups of flour
1/2 cup of salt
2 Tablespoons of cream of tartar
2 Tablespoons of vegetable oil
1 1/2 cups of VERY hot water, boiling is best


ADD INS: (optional)
Glitter
sequins
sprinkles
food coloring
essential oils

Mix the dry ingredients together in a bowl.
Add the vegetable oil to the hot water and then add to the dry ingredients.
Stir together until it starts to form.
Take out of the bowl and knead together. BE CAREFUL IT WILL BE HOT!




This recipe if stored in a sealed container will last up to a few months.

For add ins, if they are dry add in with the dry ingredients and likewise, if they are wet, add into the wet. For add ins like sprinkles it is best to add them in after the entire mixture is cooled down or the coloring will bleed from the hot water.


Let me know if you make this! Leave a comment or post to your social media (Facebook or Instagram) and tag me (@momducator) ! I love to see how you adapt it to your own.
