Homemade Play Dough
My children enjoy playing with Play-Do very much, but I hate the smell and the crumbly mess. So I make this instead! It's very smooth, soft, and I can make it smell nice with any essential oil or extract that I'd like!
Homemade Play Dough
4 cups cheap white flour
4 cups water
2 cups cheap salt
1/2 cup canola oil
8 tsp. cream of tarter
food coloring and essential oils as desired
Mix everything together in a large saucepan and stir with a wooden spoon, over medium heat, until the dough forms. This only takes a couple of minutes. When the dough forms, plop is out onto a counter and knead a few times until smooth.
If you want different colors, wait to add the food coloring until now. Separate the dough into as many different colors as you want and add different food coloring to each. Knead it in and add drops until the color you want develops.
Store in zippy bags.

My family uses homemade play-dough too. Our recipe is a little different than yours though.
Kids love play-dough!! Whenever kids come over to our house, they ask if they can play with our play-dough! We usually always have some made in the fridge for the kids that come over.
Thanks fro sharing your recipe!

I saw you made a HUGE batch of granola the other day. Your recipe looks a lot like the one I use. I have a question, though. How do you store so much at one time and keep it fresh? My batch is only about 1/3 that size as I worry about it staying fresh.
Thanks for your help. Love all the recipes. Many of them are quickly becoming family favorites.
