An offering for the children of Room 11 from Mentor Teacher Laura Freund
"You all inspired me to make my own video! Here I am explaining the steps to make playdough. We made lots of playdough last year and the children are practically experts! Let us know if you make it. Miss you all! <3
The ingredients are: 2 cups flour, 2-3 tbsp vegetable oil, 4-5 tsp. cream of tartar, 3/4 cup of salt, 2 cups warm water, 6-7 drops of food coloring
Directions: Mix dry ingredients together then add wet ingredients and give a quick mix. Put mixture over medium heat and stir for 2-3 minutes or until mixture forms into a ball and thickens. Once this starts to happen transfer to cutting board, knead mixture together and start playing!
If you are lacking in these ingredients some other options for sensory play: hair conditioner/cornstarch playdough (2 cups cornstarch, 1 cup conditioner) or just good old cornstarch and water. Warning: these versions are a little messier."
