Nana's Play Dough

A quick and easy playdough that the kids can help you make.

As long as it is stored properly it will last for quite a long time before it gets too hard to play with.

Since the ingredients are all common cooking ingredients, you don't have to worry if one of the kids decides to take a bite of the "cookie" they made. 

It will just taste really gross. 

Don't ask me how I know.....

Step 1 Assemble your Ingredients

1 cup warm Water
1 cup Flour
2 teaspoons Cream of Tartar
1 teaspoon Vegetable Oil
1/4 cup Salt
food coloring

In a saucepan over medium heat combine the ingredients.

If you want you can whisk the ingredients together to get them combined with no lumps, but it will soon thicken to the point that you will need to switch to a wooden spoon to continue stirring.

I made this years ago for my own kids and substituted baby oil for the vegetable oil. It smelled nicer and the kids loved it.

A word of advice on the baby oil- it is very dangerous to consume so watch the kids dont eat it to be on the safe side. A small amount if ingested straight from the bottle can be enough to kill young children. Why they don't have safety caps is unbelievable!

Awesome! One piece of advice would be to change the first picture so that the main picture is of the play dough.
