Playdough Recipe
This is an excellent
playdough recipe which is fun to make and never fails to provide amusement
on a rainy afternoon!
You will need:
1 cup plain (all-purpose)
flour
˝ cup salt
2 tablespoons cream of
tartar
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 cup water with food
colouring added
1 teaspoon vanilla essence
(optional but it makes the playdough smell nice!)
Put all the ingredients into a large
saucepan, and stir over a medium heat until the dough forms into a ball.
Allow to cool, and then knead until smooth.
Store in an airtight
container (a Ziploc bag with the air pressed out is good).
Going-away present idea
Small bags of pre-made playdough also make a good “going-away” present for a
toddler’s birthday party – make up some large
batches in different colours and divide it up.
We have bag toppers here!
Playdough mix
You can also make this up as a gift mix. First colour the salt with food
colouring and leave to dry. Mix the dry ingredients and put into a Ziploc bag
with a label explaining how to make up the playdough.

We have been advised that homemade playdough is a
potential danger to household pets and must be kept safely out of their reach at
all times.
