Playdough will is great fun to make and will keep little minds busy for ages and is great for developing fine motor skills, however you will need some ingredients which might be tricky to find right now!
You will need:
- 8 tbsp plain flour
- 2 tbsp table salt
- 60ml warm water
- food colouring
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
What to do:
1. Mix the flour and salt in a large bowl. Mix the water, a few drops of food colouring and the oil in a glass.
2. Pour the coloured water into the flour mix and bring together with a spoon.
3. Dust a work surface with a little flour and turn out the dough. Knead together for a few minutes to form a smooth, pliable dough. If you want a more intense colour you can work in a few extra drops of food colouring.
4. Store in a plastic sandwich bag (squeeze out the air) in the fridge to keep it fresh.
