Playdough recipe

You will need:

• 1 cup plain flour

• 1 cup of water
• 1 tablespoon oil

• Food colouring
• Glitter (optional)

How to make long-lasting play dough

• Put all the ingredients in a non-stick saucepan and mix to form a paste.
• Cook on a very low heat, stirring continuously until the mixture comes together in a ball.
• Allow to cool and then knead for a couple of minutes. At this stage I like to add glitter – great fun!
• This play dough will keep for several months in an airtight container.
