Make your own soft play dough for children
Play-doh is a great toy for children because it promotes their motor skills and stimulates their imagination. It's perfect for boring, rainy autumn days. Since homemade play-doh is cheaper, here's the perfect recipe.
Ingredients:- 200 g flour
- 100 g salt
- 200 ml boiling water
- 2 tbsp cooking oil
- 2 tbsp citric acid
- liquid or powdered food coloring
- cooking pot
- mixer
- Mixing bowl
Put the flour in the mixing bowl and add the salt. Then mix in the 2 tablespoons of citric acid along with the food coloring. Mix all ingredients thoroughly to make the dough. With the mixer on the lowest speed, gradually add all of the hot water to the mixed ingredients. Mix until a smooth mixture forms. Now pour the oil into the dough that is resting in the mixing bowl. You can decide for yourself what consistency you find sufficient. Once you are satisfied with the dough, you can remove it from the mixing bowl and shape it by hand. You can also let the children help knead it once the dough is no longer hot. If you put the dough in the refrigerator, it will keep for about 14 days.
