Today I realised while writing up some others posts that over the years I have been blogging I have not yet shared our play dough recipe with you. There are many recipes out there and to be honest the are roughly the same. I find this one works for me and usually will stay fresh for a week. I don't like to keep them any longer then that because of bacteria and keeping the mixture fresh.
If you usually buy pre-made play dough I beg you to give home made play dough a try. I find it easier to get out of carpets and it's an awful lot cheaper too. The possibilities are endless and I believe once you give it a go you won't want to turn back.
1/2 cup of salt
1 cup of flour
1 table spoon of oil
1 cup of just boiled water
1 table spoon of cream of tartar
your choice our food colouring and flavouring/scent
1 table spoon of glycerine (optional for a silky effect)
