Play dough is always fun when you have preschoolers, especially if you are trapped indoors for a weekend and want to occupy them for a while, even my 8 year old Sultan loves to play with it.
I remember when mom used to make it for my little sisters at home and she used natural food colors like turmeric.
Here is a home made play dough recipe, I haven't tried this one to be hones,t I use my moms recipe which has no measuring at all :P
(moms are professionals you know!!!)
- 1 cup flour
- 1 cup warm water
- 2 teaspoons cream of tarter
- 1 teaspoon oil
- 1/4 cup salt
- food coloring
HERE is also a link to a blog that has an interesting play dough booklet that you can print out and hard cover at any bookshop and arrange in a file so the kids can stick the dough on, have fun and learn at the same time.
sumaya! i love this! do you have a recipe for for play dough without cream of tarter? i don't have that recipe. i tried one other recipe but it came out too sticky :/
