On our Ramadan calendar today the activity was to play with some playdough. Not very Ramadanish, I know, but definitely a good activity to keep the little ones busy.
This recipe is honestly amazing, makes the softest most pliable playdough and I just had to share. This is a small batch recipe, the perfect amount for hours of fun. It takes 5 minutes and is a no cook recipe. What could be better than that?
Playdough
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1 1/2 tblsp salt
- 1/2 tblsp cream of tarter
- 1/2 tblsp vegetable oil
- 1/3 cup boiling water
- Few drops of food colouring
Instructions
- In a bowl mix together flour, salt, cream of tarter and oil and add in the boiling water. This will be extremely hot, so mix carefully with a spoon until it's at a manageable temperature. Add in your colouring and knead well until soft and smooth. Store in a ziplock bag or air tight container while not in use.

I love how soft it is!
I know, such a great recipe! 🙂
Can we skip the cream of tartar ? Do you think it will make a difference
Salaam, please forgive me for taking so long to get back to you. I think it helps with the softness. But since this is a small batch you could try it and see how it goes.
