Great Recipe to Use With Children
Homemade Play Dough

1 1/2 cups salt,
1 Tablespoon Cream of Tartar,
3 cups water,
3 Tablespoons oil,
food coloring,
Put all of the ingredients into a saucepan and mix well.
Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture blends together to form "play dough" (about 7 minutes).
Cook the dough 2 to 3 minutes longer to make sure that it is done (and not sticky).
