Homemade Playdough

The past few days I have been on a Homemade Play dough making frenzy! The kids love it. It is quick an easy & provides hours of endless entertainment! Although at times it can get messy, but they love it & I don't mind. We have even made Peanut Butter play dough & they eat it as they go! LOL It smells super yummy too.

Homemade Play dough

Ingredients:
2 cups of plain flour
2 cups of coloured water
1 Tbsp. of cooking oil
1 tsp. cream of tartar
1 cup of salt
Directions:
Place all of the ingredients in a medium size or large pan. Cook slowly on medium-high and stir it until the play dough thickens. Keeps best in the fridge in plastic containers. This is similar to the traditional play dough recipe.
This recipe takes less than 10 minutes.

Peanut Butter Play dough

Ingredients:
3 and a half cups peanut butter
4 cups of dry milk powder
4 cups of sugar
3 and a half cups of honey
Directions:
Mix together peanut butter and the sugar, and beat in honey and milk powder. This recipe takes about 12 minutes and is a nice change from traditional play dough.

Here is a really good link for all sorts of play dough. No more buying it, when you can make it in the comfort of your own home!
