PLAY-DOH ... Much Fun

We always have play-doh around but being kids it often gets dried out after a time. We could go out and buy more but it is so much more fun to make it. I've used different recipes but decided to try the kool-aid version of play-doh. Just did a batch of lime! Came out a pretty green color and a nice smell. Give it a try, easy and fun.

KOOL AID PLAY-DOH

1 CUP FLOUR
1 TABLESPOON OIL
1/4 CUP SALT
1 PACK UNSWEETENED KOOLAID
2 TABLESPOONS CREAM OF TARTAR
1 CUP WATER

KEEP IN AIRTIGHT CONTAINER WHEN NOT IN USE.
