Although I will say, for those of us with extremely hot gas stoves, even the lowest setting was not low enough. I could tell my dough was going to explode if I left it on any longer. I used to stress over the cost of gift wrap tape that my grandson would over use. Yet, I had to admit it is actually a cheap and educational ‘toy.’

I made this for my son. Very easy! I can’t wait to see what he says when I give it to him. He’s two and is just starting to get interested in play dough. great Recipie, consistency is very close to real playdough. It even works in the microwave, I found it seems to work best if you heat it initially just until the top layer starts to darken, then take it out and stir it up, and repeat in 10 second increments after the initial heat until you get the same consistency you described in the pot. Came out just as well, but easier than heating up a stove and seems to hold itself together (not leaving much in the bowl) after cooking in the microwave dish so that theres no cleanup to speak of compared to the pot in my experience. There are many good reasons to make your own play-dough. Kids really enjoy making things in the kitchen, especially when they get to put their hands in and mix it all up.

We’d all love to be those fantastic crafty moms but the simple truth is most of us are just too tired and busy.I’m the person which never gets the recipe rights from the the first attempt! And yet, here it is, perfect play dough with slight lavender aroma which I added for extra sensitive experience 🙂 It’s a bit softer than the original play doh but works just as well. I’m sure it’s going to be a huge budget saver for us 🙂 Thank for the recipe! Hi, I really like the way this dough turns out but I am wondering about one small thing. I get a grittiness to my hands after kneading it for a few minutes. Is there something I can tweak to minimize this? I would rather my/my kids’ hands feel oily versus salty/gritty after playing. Thank you! Lastly, take the remaining portion and add a teaspoon of yellow gel food coloring. Mix it thoroughly to obtain a bright yellow shade.

Thanks Alisonjane! I love that! I didn’t do that with my kiddos because the food coloring I use is really vibrant and I didn’t want it to get all over them. But if you have older kids that won’t touch everything, that’s a great idea. I love this recipe. But I use less salt. I use a quarter cup and it works just fine. I also stopped using the dyes, as these are toxic. I use natural foods to make colored water to use in the play dough. I used 1/4 cup of blueberries, heated them in a little water (1.5 cups or so) until they popped. The water was as dark as I wanted. So I strained it and used it in the recipe. Take one portion and add a teaspoon of red gel food coloring. Mix it well to achieve a vibrant red color.

I have made this a couple of times now and both have come out fantastic. Just a little tip if you prefer more natural dyes but still want a great colour. I boiled some leftover red cabbage in water for an hour or so and I strained it, then used it in this recipe and it gave me a bright magenta pink 🙂 And how long does your playdough last before it gets rotten? Because this is from flour so it will get rotten somehow right.
