Homemade Play-Doh

I got this recipe, entitled "Best Ever Playdough", from my ma-in-law.  And it's true, it is the best playdough I have ever made...although, my aunt used to make this edible peanut butter playdough when we were kids, and I've yet to make that, soooo that might be comparable...I'll let ya know!   

For now though, the recipe for this soft, squishy, googy goodness is:

Mix together 2 cups flour, 2 Tbsp cooking oil, and 4 tsp cream of tartar.
Bring 2 cups water, 1 cup salt, and a few drops of food coloring to a boil.
Pour water combo into flour combo and knead together until smooth. Store in a plastic bag. 

This stuff can last forever and it makes a ton! 

Here's some fun being had with this tried and true, kid-approved substance:



 
Selah's creative creature,
I love kids' imaginations,
you never know what they'll come up with!

Not only kid-approved,
this stuff is also adult-approved!!

 
By far, my favorite!!!
See the little tongue sticking out?? So cute!!!
Now, go make yourself some "Best Ever Playdough" and channel your inner kid...you know you want to! ;)
