Homemade Play Dough Recipe:
-------------------------------------------------
Have you ever wanted play dough and not had any? With these instructions, you’ll be able to craft homemade playdoh with simple household items. You will need 1 cup flour, 1/2 cup salt, 2 teaspoons cream of tartar, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, 1 cup of food dyed water, a medium pot, a mixing spoon and lastly an oven. Making the playdoh should only be done after acquiring the necessary materials. The entire process should not take longer than 30 minutes. Remember to always be careful while working in the kitchen.
-------------------------------------------------

Instruction Set:
Step 1: Mix together the flour and the salt. (Add a little extra flour for soft dough)
Step 2: Mix together ½ cup of warm water with a few drops of food coloring.
Step 3: Slowly pour the colored water into the flour mixture, stirring as you pour.
-------------------------------------------------
Step 4: Stir until combined, then knead with your hands until the flour is completely absorbed. If the dough is too sticky, add more flour until it doesn’t stick at all.
After making the dough feel free to play with it. I would recommend any of these items to make your experience even better: -Silverware -Cookie cutters -Biscuit cutters
-------------------------------------------------
-Rolling pins -Mason jar rings

Conclusion:
Eventually the dough will grow stale, but don’t be sad because it will always be easy to make some more. To prevent the dough becoming stale too quickly be sure to store the dough in a cool place within a container. (The container can be plastic or glassware.) Just remember to have fun with it.
