It's homemade!

When my sister and I were little, my mom used to make us homemade play dough. I can remember the smell as it was cooking on the stove. She would scoop it out and we would play with it while it was still warm. I loved it! So, now I got the recipe and London and I made some of our own. She enjoyed putting all the ingredients together. We watched the play dough form, and
then we got it out. We had so much fun with our home cooked creation!

You should try it too! It's super easy!

1 cup flour
1 1/2 TBS vegetable oil
1/2 cup salt
1 TBS cream of tartar
1 cup water (add food coloring)

Mix flour and salt. Combine the rest and stir on low heat until dough becomes hard and you can form a ball with it.
Enjoy!

We loved when mom made homemade play-doh. I used to eat it, very salty. Not really eat it just taste it...I'm not that kid!

Actually, I used to sneak some bites too! I was just too embarrassed to admit it! HA! :)
