Does anyone know how to make your own playdough?

Question

Using flour and stuff. And you can do it, but the lady who's got the recipe won't give it to us.

Answer 1

Traditional Play Dough
1 cup flour
1 cup warm water
2 teaspoons cream of tartar
1 teaspoon oil
1/4 cup salt
food coloring
Mix all ingredients, adding food coloring last. Stir over medium heat until smooth. Remove from pan and knead until blended smooth. Place in plastic bag or airtight container when cooled. Will last for a long time.

Answer 2

The secret ingredient here is cream of tartar. This recipe makes play dough that is not grainy like uncooked play dough and keeps for a long time.

Play Dough Recipe 1
4 cups flour
1 cup salt
4 cups water
4 tablespoons oil
1/2 cup cream of tartar
Mix all ingredients in a sauce pan. Cook and stir over low/medium heat until play dough is completely formed and no longer sticky. Allow to cool slightly before storing in an air tight container or zip lock bag.

Answer 3

We use 3 cups of cheap flour (supermarket cheap is fine for this!!) Cup of salt, half cup of vegetable oil(helps it stay squidgy!!), food colouring (and sometimes a handful of glitter!!) plus enough water to get the dough to the right consistancy.

Once used store in fridge in and airtight container and it can be used over and over again. If looking a bit dry add a few drops more water and knead in - and off you go again.

My kids loved this and it is so much cheaper then the shop bought ones - plus if the kids are being good they can even help you make it!!!

Answer 4
