Playdough Recipe

Do you have any unexpected kids that you need a small gift for over Christmas? Here's a playdough recipe that is a good one. It could also be good to give the kids some quiet time when they start to get tired if you have a place they can play with it and not mess up the carpet! (A vinyl table cloth or even a plastic table cover can be great on a tiled floor and they can sit on the floor and play with it also!)

HOMEMADE PLAY DOUGH

1/2 cup salt
2 tablespoons cream of cartar
1 tablespoon cooking or olive oil
1 cup flour
1 cup water
Koolaid or food coloring can be used to color it as desired

Mix salt, flour and cream of tartar together.
Add water, oil and food coloring.
Cook on medium heat about 3 to 5 minutes, until dough is right consistency to mold with.
Store in plastic bags or airtight containers.
