Playdough
This is an excellent play-dough recipe which is fun to make and never fails to provide amusement on a rainy afternoon!

You will need:
1 cup plain (all-purpose) flour
½ cup salt
2 tablespoons cream of tartar
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 cup water with food colouring added
1 teaspoon vanilla essence (optional but it makes the playdough smell nice!)

Put all the ingredients into a large saucepan, and stir over a medium heat until the dough forms into a ball. Allow to cool, and then knead until smooth.
Store in an airtight container (a Ziploc bag with the air pressed out is good).

Going-away present idea
Small bags of pre-made playdough also make a good “going-away” present for a toddler’s birthday party – make up some large batches in different colours and divide it up.

Playdough mix
You can also make this up as a gift mix. First colour the salt with food colouring and leave to dry. Mix the dry ingredients and put into a Ziploc bag with a label explaining how to make up the playdough.
