Easy All-Natural Homemade Play Dough (No Cook Recipe)

Quick And Easy All-Natural Homemade Play Dough (No Cook Recipe)

Homemade playdough is a great way to save money and this all-natural recipe is a great way to be sure your kids are playing with a non-toxic safe version without conventional dyes etc.
It's great for kids with allergies and sensitivities like mine. You can even use gluten-free flour if needed.
This is a super easy play dough recipe so simple in-fact that you can make it as often as needed, which can be a lot with kids... and you can even let the kids help!

Ingredients:
1 cup of flour
1/8 cup of salt
a bit less then 1/2 cup of water
5 drops of natural food coloring (I use these natural dyes)

Directions:
Mix together the flour and salt
Mix warm water with 7 drops of food coloring
Slowly pour the water into the flour mixture while stirring
Mix until combined and then knead with your hands until the flour is completely mixed in
Add more flour if your play dough is sticky, keep adding flour until there is no sticky-ness

Repeat for the next desired color of all-natural homemade play dough and let the kids enjoy!
