15 May Playdough Recipe
Try this non-toxic super soft and stretchy playdough recipe. With just a few ingredients you will never have to buy expensive store-bought dough again.
Playdough is important for childhood development
Playdough isn’t just a fun pastime. Toddlers and preschoolers need hand strengthening and co-ordination exercises to help develop their hand muscles. This ensures they are able to grasp items and helps them to hold a pencil which is especially important when they reach school-age.
Recipe
- 1 cup plain flour
- 1/2 cup salt
- 1 tablespoon cooking oil
- 1 cup water
- 2 tablespoons cream of tartar*
- few drops of natural (additive free) food colouring (optional)
- 1 – 2 drops of essentials oils for fragrance (optional)
Method
- Add all ingredients to a medium sized saucepan, over medium heat stir the dough until pliable.
- Remove from heat and knead until smooth.
- Allow to cool and store in airtight container or ziplock freezer bag.
*The cream of tartar is a preservative that makes this dough last for 6 months or longer.
