Playdough is a resource that has an endless amount of learning opportunity for children. Children and adults can find it very relaxing, creating things and being very artistic. Here is an easy recipe that uses not a lot of ingredients that you might have in your kitchen cupboard.

1 cup salt
1 tbs oil
1 cup cold water
2 drops food colouring
Method
Combine plain flour and salt.
Add water, food colouring and oil. Mix until ingredients are combined.
