Homemade Playdough (Play-doh)
I love homemade playdough more than the readymade. The
secret behind loving this playdough madly is it’s cheap and easy to make. The
interesting about preparing the playdough at your home is you can choose
ingredients of your own choice as the store-bought playdough usually contains
wheat ingredients that would be not great for those who have allergies and can
be affected easily. Your friends and children would be amazed to get this
homemade playdough as a beautiful gift. I assure you that after reading the
easy process of making the playdough, you will definitely try one for you.
You will find ton of recipes of the playdough on internet.
It totally depends upon your wish that how basic or fancy you have decided to
make. While I prepare for me, I really love to put some glitter, cooking
extracts (peppermint or vanilla) for a little essence and food coloring to make
it look more attractive for my child. Believe me, it smells like a heaven and
looks truly fantastic.
Here’s my favorite generic recipe of playdough:
- Corn Flour 2 cups
- Salt 1 cup
- Vegetable Oil 2 tbsp
- Tartar Cream 1 tbsp
- Warm Water 2 cups
Optional:
- Food coloring or unsweetened drink mix for a good smell and adding color to the play dough
- Glitter (make sure your kids are bit older to use playdough with glitter, otherwise they would try to eat it)
- Cooking extracts (such as vanilla, orange and peppermint, etc) for a nice aromatic fragrance
Quick Tip:
After when playdough is ready, store it in an airtight
container so that it will last for a long time, almost for 2 to 3 months.

Before pulling out of the pan, check the dough
whether it is hot or cool. Let it cool down for few minutes, tell your kids to
knead it a bit, they would love to do that.
There you have playdough and of course, your
kids will enjoy playing with this dough.
