Non-Toxic Playdough
I work hard to create a non-toxic environment for my family. Some of the simple ways we can do this are by making over age-old activities like playdough. I loved playing playdough when I was young and even now my daughter, and I will set up a table with all sorts of playdough toys. We will sit for hours playing. Here is my simple, non-toxic recipe
- 3 cups flour
- 3 cups water
- 1 1/2 cups salt
- 3 tsp cream of tarter
- 6 Tbsp oil
- Natural food coloring this is my favorite. India Tree Natural Decorating Colors, 3 bottles(red,yellow,blue)
Mix dry ingredients(flour, cream of tartar, salt). In a large saucepan, heat water & oil until boiling. When water liquid boils, add dry ingredients. Continuing to mix until well incorporated. Knead when cool to the touch. Separate into desired color rounds, then add natural, non-toxic food coloring. (Note it will take a lot, I mean a lot of food coloring. Much more than traditional colors).
