I love to cook and it runs in the family. My 10 year old son really enjoys coming up with his own ideas and eggs is something he cooks for breakfast for all of his siblings when given the chance. We have a full house with extra kids on the weekends for fun. Several of the kids hate eggs and will only cook my sons. His secret ingredient is cinnamon. I actually googled cinnamon and eggs out of curiosity while texting our oldest daughter about his cooking skills.
And the pride it will give him. Made my night! That gun thingy is only for tourists. Which, of course, you are, but still. You cleaned and cooked them to perfection, though.

Thanks for sharing such a kind of healthy recipes. Healthy Food Killeen. Hi, Oh wow, some of these sound just incredible. Lazy keto meal. Compare it to store bought dough and you are saving loads of cash.
The texture is divine. Our Plan My plan was to make a simple batch of play dough to replace the sparkly dried out purple stuff that happily met our cookie-making, glitter infusing, practice cutting, snowman-making needs over the past two months.
I asked my daughter what color she would like this time around, and she answered with… ALL of them. Steps Mix everything but the food coloring together in a large pot until somewhat smooth. It will be lumpy. Not to worry, the dough will get smoother as it cooks. Cook the dough over a low heat. Mix frequently. Keep mixing until the edges of the dough along the side and bottom of the pan appear dry.
Pinch a piece of dough. Place the dough on a counter top or large cutting board that can withstand a little food coloring. I divided mine into four balls, flattened each of them, added a little bit of food coloring or liquid watercolors, and then kneaded it in.
I added more food coloring to get the desired shades of yellow, pink, teal, and lavender. Play with the dough right away or store it in a large Ziplock bag or sealed container. Tips if you do NOT have a nonstick pan: add a little oil to the bottom of the pan. As long as you mix it up well before you give it to them, there is no staining. Tip: this food gel brand is cheaper and appears to work well too. I have not tested it personally my Americolor has lasted for years! Here you can see, I just finished kneading a fresh warm batch of bright red playdough and there is no color on my hands at all:.
The one caveat? I have not tried black food coloring, so no promises there! And of course, you have to use a reasonable amount of food coloring — if you try using an entire bottle of Americolor food gel? Kids love play dough and will often spend hours with it. But sometimes they can get bored and you might be looking for some fun play dough add-ons for more fun and direction.
For a fun play dough variation, try this scented playdough with essential oils. Less-crumbly, less-junk, and more fun, this homemade playdough recipe can be made in less than 10 minutes!

Love this — especially the bright colors. At first i use the exact quantities and the result was very sticky. I already cook it in the pan even longer..
What should i do? Should i add more salt or something? Fyi, i live in tropical country with very high humidity. Maybe that is the reason?
And how long does your playdough last before it gets rotten? Because this is from flour so it will get rotten somehow right. Can we keep it in the fridge so it will last longer? I will be very glad and thankful if you can answer my questions. It is possible that the high humidity is contributing to this.
I have never stored playdough in the fridge. I had the same issue. Took at least 20 minutes or more of stirring to get it to be the right consistency, but still feels damp after cooling down. All I can think of is the humidity must be higher here than where you are. When we combined our items after moving in together I magically had it.
I love the bright bold colors. What food coloring did you use. I like that each color is in the same hue family. Very cohesive. Thank you for the recipe. Very easy to make, I made 3 different colours yesterday with my little ones they are 4 and 17 months and they loved helping preparing and playing with it. My kids used to love blending playdough colors together into one icky looking greenish-purpleish blob too! I love this idea. I teach pre k and am always looking for new recipes.
Had that happen once before! I sent 16 kids home with BLUE hands!! They looked like smurfs! I have tried so many playdough recipes before and this is hands down the best I have ever came across! Thank you so much!! Very quick and easy to do and virtually mess free!! I made some yesterday and used Wilton Red gel to color it…. Or is it just the difference in food coloring brands?
I get much more vivid colors with AmeriColor with less too. This is wonderful!! Great way to make your own! I wish I knew this when my kids were little. I will have to do this for my grandson soon. Great instructions and find!!! I am so excited to make this for my four kids!
I have always hated the way the store bought kind smells so this looks like it will be a great alternative. I do have one question, is the food coloring nut free? Great recipe. I never let my kids play with playdough because it made such a mess, but grandkids are a different story. I made one batch in hot pink and my 4-yr-old and 2-yr-old granddaughters have been playing with it for an hour. You can usually find cream of tartar in the bulk food section of many stores.
If you are anywhere near a WinCo grocery, they have wonderful prices in their bulk foods. My mom used to make this for us and I remembered the ingredients but not the proportions. Thanks to your recipe my 2. I read that the brand name dough is made in China and completely unregulated.
If you use boiling water you can skip the cooking entirely. Adding the color on that step is what makes the color so vibrant. We made this 2 times a year, 6 batches at a time for 3 classes at our preschool. Skipping the cooking part makes it move really fast. Use 2 pks of unsweetened KoolAid instead of the food coloring and double the cream of tartar.
The KoolAid powder makes an intense color and a wonderful smell. This recipe is amazing! I loved it just as much as she did!
You can make play dough from Kool aid packages and that recipe is without cream of tartar. If you google Koolaid play dough recipe you will find it. And it smells amazing! I think extracts are probably the best way to go, but you could try essential oils too. I loved making this with my son. How did you get yours so bright? I used almost half a container of blue food coloring and its still such a pale robins egg blue. Love this for the yellow we did, however we used Wilton Black, and my hands are hot pink now…..
Yikes, hot pink hands! For the other colors, I only got a little on my hands while mixing it, but it washed off pretty easily. If whatever you are using does happen to make the playdough a little sticky, just add some flour and it will be perfect!
Always wanted to make homemade play dough! Your website is just fantastic! I just made a batch with my daughter and so far so good! I saw lots of people commented about cream of tartar- it is an acid, so that is probably why lemon juice could possibly be used as a substitute. Just the chemist in me thinking here… Anyway, thank for the recipe!!! Just made three batches, super easy. Perfect rainy-day activity for my little girls.
Thank you for posting! Getting ready to make this recipe and realized I didnt have any cream of tartar. Did a little research and found a substitute: white wine vinegar or lemon juice in 3 times the ratio to the cream of tartar requirement. Thank you so much for posting.
Just made a huge batch for my son and his friends. Love this recipe! You can actually uses vinegar instead of cream of tartar.
I wish I would have known about this secret in my preschool teaching days…. Also in a pinch i used some evoo i had instead of veggie oil… still worked fine. I used canola oil and it worked well! I used vinegar in the place of the tartar.
It kind of smells like a salt and vinegar chip as the 9yo pointed out. Thank you so much for this! I have tried so many recipes and nothing has worked for me. I made this on Wednesday — it was quick and easy and is still going strong. So happy I came across this post. I love this recipe! I put my food coloring in with all the other ingredients and that seemed to work well for me….
Thank you so much for this recipe; I made 7 batches of 7 different colors and gave half of each batch to a friend! This is great! So glad its edible, EASY, and a great way to use up the cream of tartar that just sits in my cupboard! I have made a variation of this a lot in the past, but not for a few years.
I think your colors are WAY more vibrant than mine ever were. I do love the consistency. The only thing is, how do we get that Playdoh smell in ours…LOL. Something about the smell of Playdoh that takes me back to when the kids were really tiny.
A great project to let kids help with. And have older sibs do for their little sibs. Also a great project for babysitters to do with their kids parent approved of course …my 12 year old would love to make this! Lasts long time. Fun to make. Made some, but it got soggy overnight. Is ok to reheat in microwave? Do i need to add something else when reheating? Reply 4 years ago. I'm not sure how you batch would get soggy overnight, sounds like interesting story.
As for your microwave question I have not tried, but I lets consider the normal instructions to warm the dough at low temperatures. When finished, the dough is still "dough" and pliable. When you cook food from a microwave it usually it comes out fast and hot. If you set the time to thirty seconds the dough batch the water evaporates and "cooks". Your microwave may have a defrost feature and it may be possible to warm the dough, like I said earlier I have not tried.
If you are going to microwave the dough batch let us know how it turns out. What would be the worst that can happen, throw away a bad batch. I'm sure other people would be interested in your results. A salt dose ranging from 0. The one cup of salt in this recipe equates to grams. Therefore consumption this batch has the ability to kill between 80 and lbs of body weight. I don't think many kids would enjoy eating this but to say it's "entirely edible Please note, I do not have a problem with this Instructable.
I think it's a great idea, recipe and craft. My only objection is to the insinuation that it is "entirely eatable". If a kid eats a small amount there should be no problems. But in every kindergarten class seems to have that one kid that will eat the entire jar of paste or the whole box of crayons. If that kid eats this stuff, the kid will be in serious need of emergency treatment. I think the author made that statement to say that the recipe is non-toxic, so if curious little ones take a bite, it won't be toxic Classic Slime.
I have 3 boys ages 17, 15, and 13… and you know what? Because we can! Cannot believe you would wait for the teacher to text you about field trip money. Teachers have enough on their plate as it is. What if she or he had to text every family. And yes I am a teacher. And yes, I am a mother and a human and sometimes I forget things.
I think maybe you misunderstood the tone of the original post. Love the commentary on this and I too have made play doh way to late the day before it was due for a class project.
