Play-Doh Bulk 12-Pack of Red Non-Toxic Modelling Compound, 4-Ounce Cans

Product Information

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. In my experience, this play dough recipe doesn’t crumble and make as big of a mess as the store bought “Play-Doh”. It also lasts longer– we have a batch from well over a year ago that’s still going strong!

Can I add glitter or other decorative elements to my Play-Doh? Yes, you can add glitter, sequins, or other decorative elements to your Play-Doh to make it sparkle and stand out. Add a few drops of food color to 1 cup of water, then stir into the flour mixture along with 1 Tablespoon vegetable oil. I made some play dough rules with my 4 and 2 year olds and rehearsed them while making the play dough together.

Once you chop up the crayons, melt into the oil over a stove. After the crayons are melted, slowly stir in the water. You can then add the dry ingredients and keep stirring until the dough pulls together. Be sure to mix with a spoon or whisk as you slowly pour in the dry ingredients.Dump the play dough onto a floured surface and let it cool for a few minutes. Once the dough has cooled enough to knead, you will want to knead until the dough is smooth and even in texture.

Use a firm brush, like this one or a clean toothbrush, to gently but firmly work the playdough out of the fabricI really love this recipe! I did it on my small front burner on 3 and it worked out in less than five minutes it seemed. I did the food coloring after I took it out of the pan. I was able to do that right out of the pan, as it was not that hot. I did a little less than 1/3 cup salt. Next time I will try 1/4 a cup to see what that does. I made blue, grey purple, red, yellow, and green from one batch! So easy and awesomely fun to do! Remember, the amount of food coloring or the ratio of primary colors used can be adjusted to achieve the desired shade. Method 3: Mixing Pre-made Play-Doh For blue Play-Doh, repeat the process by adding 4-6 drops of blue food coloring to the dough and mixing it thoroughly. Make sure the color is evenly incorporated. Wrap the blue Play-Doh in plastic wrap and store it in an airtight container to maintain its freshness. Method 2: Mixing Primary Colors
