Non- Edible Playdough

Ingredients:

•1 cup flour

•1/2 cup of salt
•2 tablespoons Cream of Tarter
•1 tablespoon of Oil
•Food coloring (optional)

Directions:

1. In a large sauce pan, mix all ingredients together and cook over medium heat until it forms into a stiff substance (if you want playdough in different colors you will need to repeat this adding the food coloring of your choice)

2. Take the dough out of the sauce pan and put it on wax paper to cool, cover with a damp cloth (I've used playdough out of the pan, just make sure it's cool enough for little hands).

3.Store your play dough in an air-tight container.
