Homemade Cooked Playdough Recipe

I don’t know about you, but I need a break from chasing the kids all around the house. One handy trick I have found is sitting them at the kitchen table with Homemade Playdough. There are a couple different ways to make Homemade Playdough. You can cook it (like I did in this post) or Non-cooked Playdough (which I plan on making next week). I love how Homemade Playdough feels compared to store bought Play-Doh. The kids will play with it for hours; giving you Mom a break to do something like laundry.

When I started getting everything ready to make the Homemade Playdough I relized my husband took our camera to work with him today, so my photos are from my crappy phone. Maybe Sprint will see this post and want to send me a new awesome phone because these photos will not help their sales.

You will need the following ingredients:

2 cup flour

1 cup salt

2 cup water

2 Tablespoon oil

4 teaspoons cream of tartar

1/2 teaspoon of vanilla or any other type of extract for a pleasing Playdough smell

If you want colorful Homemade Playdough: add Food coloring

How to make Homemade Playdough Recipe:

Throw it all in a large pot and mix it up. Then cook on the stove on low heat. Stir until the mix turns into a Playdough texture. When it looks and feels like Playdough remove from heat and let it cool.

All of the Homemade Playdough Recipes can be played with Play-Doh tools and toys.

I can keep this ball of fun up to 3 months! Add some sprinkles or glitter to spice it up. I hope you have fun making cheap easy Homemade Playdough with your little ones.
