Play dough



It is snowing today. We needed a fun indoor craft to occupy our morning since we couldn't go outside. So we made play dough. Blue play dough. Then we cut and squished, and rolled, and mashed to our hearts content :)

Here is the recipe I used in case anyone else needs an indoor activity:
1 1/4 cups flour
1/4 cup salt
1 tablespoon alum (I didn't have any so we omitted this)
Mix with
1 cup boiling water
1 tablespoon oil
Wilton cake colors or food coloring
If play dough is too sticky, add more flour.
Store in resealable bag.
Have fun!
