Looking for a homemade, non-toxic play-doh recipe?

Well, here it is...

3 cups flour (you can use gluten-free flour)
1 1/2 cups salt
3 tablespoons cream of tartar
3 cups water
3 tablespoons oil
food coloring

Mix together dry ingredients in large mixing bowl, set aside. In small pan bring water, oil and food coloring to a boil. Pour into bowl with dry ingredients and stir until to tough and then knead on floured table or cutting board. I like to let the children help with everything except the hot water (obviously) and when the play-doh is cool enough, it's so much fun to just play with it warm. You can keep it in a ziploc bag for several weeks.
