3 cup cold water
3 cups flour
1 ½ cups salt
3 cups boiling water
3 tablespoonfuls of cream of tartar
3 tablespoonfuls of oil (any kind)
food coloring (optional)
Mix all dry ingredients together in large bowl. Add oil and food coloring and blend well.
Add the boiling water. Mix well and knead thoroughly until stiff dough forms.
can be used immediately, but for best results put play dough in a plastic bag and cool in the fridge for about an hour. Enjoy.

3 Make sock puppets. Use the buttons and yarn or old tie for the hair and mouth. Let them use their imaginations. Thereafter, a puppet show.
