 No-cook playdough recipe.  

Every toddler loves squishing playdough, but have you ever tried making it with them? This recipe is so simple. The mixture doesn’t need cooking or boiling water added, which is great as hot playdough can scald little hands (in case he gets his eager mitts on it before it’s cooled). This is a totally safe one for your toddler to make, the only thing better than playdough to a toddler is making it. Take this activity outside as toddler-made playdough has to be the definition of messy fun!

Ingredients

• 2 cups plain flour • 1 cup salt • 1 cup cold water • 1 tbs oil • liquid food colouring

Method

  • Step 1: In a large bowl, add the flour and salt. Stir.
  • Step 2: Add the water, oil, drops of food colouring (add as many drops as you like to get the desired hue)
  • Step 3: Knead the mixture until it has a playdough consistency (you may need to help with this bit to ensure it’s well-kneaded).
  • Tip! If consistency is too wet, add a little more plain flour.

Have fun making different coloured batches!
