Blend water and oil together in a bowl. Add to the saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until it <a name="OLE_LINK2"></a><a name="OLE_LINK1">thickens. Add several drops of food coloring until you get the right color. Cook for about five minutes. Take the play dough out of the saucepan and put it on a cutting board or counter and knead for a few minutes. Add flour if it's too sticky.</a>This play dough should last around three months if you keep it sealed in an airtight container or plastic ziplock bag. It's so smooth and fun to play with when it's still warm.<br /><br />Have fun!!!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2067755340617181192-1977136266450364671?l=rachel-craftideas.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Rachelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12253385898040633830noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2067755340617181192.post-50975734818399697972009-07-04T23:34:00.000-07:002009-07-05T03:13:28.767-07:00Visit <a href="http://www.craftykidz.com.au/">www.craftykidz.com.au</a> and view their great range of craft kits and craft supplies especially for kids.
