PLAYDOUGH

PLAYDOUGH (cooked)

I really liked this recipe. Got kinda weird feeling after a couple of days - but I hadn't kept in a covered container. Was easy to make and play with. I did add the baby oil.

4 cups water
4 cups flour
1 cup salt
2 Tbsp. cooking oil
4 Tbsp. cream of tarter
food coloring

Combine ingredients. Cook in a big pan, sitrring constantly, until most of the moisture is absorbed. If you like you can knead in glitter for sparkly playdough when the dough cools. Store in a covered container. *This does not need to be refrigerated*

Special Note: Can add a bit of baby oil to get a softer texture and to make the playdough smell better.

SNOW DOUGH
Haven't made this yet - found in FamilyFun magazine. They said it won't dry out even after a month of being uncovered.  We got as a gift this year for Christmas from someone in our ward gingerbread playdough.  We had so much fun playing with it and it smelled wonderful.

Mix:
2 cups cornstarch
1/3 cup vegetable oil

With your fingers knead in 6T iridescent white glitter.  If the dough is too dry, add more oil one tablespoon at a time, until the dough is soft but a little crumbly.  Makes 2 cups.
