Yesterday we made home-made playdough.
I had promised the kids I'd make some sometime over Christmas, and we got around to it on the sixth day!
I was thinking I knew the recipe by heart, but, thought I'd check the web to make sure. Did you know that there are oodles of different playdough recipes? There's even scented playdough and editable playdough. (I have enough hard time telling my toddler to NOT eat old-fashioned "salt" playdough, why would I make chocolate or peanut butter edible playdough?)
And I ended up "eyeballing" proportions: almost 2 c salt, about 4 c flour, couple dashes of cream of tartar, couple tablespoons of oil, water; mixed; stirred; and cooked to perfection! After dividing into proportions and coloring, we had Green, White and Pink playdough.

Aren't we allowed to eat the regular kind? I always found it kind of yummy!! (Yeah, I agree, no need to encourage that...)
Yea, I used to love the salty home-made dough taste too... I think it appeals more to kiddie taste-buds though.
