How to make play dough
Some pics of how we made ours...
|
I tend to add my vanilla essence now ,
so it can boil out the liquid
|
|
Mix all the ingredients together in a sauce pan
Give it a good mix - no lumpy bits
This bit I let Michaela do |
|
Stove not switched on... |
|
Checking for lumps |
|
As you heat it it will start to go lumpy - this is good keep mixing
Dont let it burn
Keep the heat low and do this slowly |
|
It will clump together eventually
The slower you cook it the less likely it will start to make that crumbly feeling.
Leave some moisture in it - not so that its stick - you can add colour now if you like and
if it is a bit sticky just reheat it slowly |
|
dont let it burn |
|
It will eventually all pull away from the side and stick together like this - very play dough like |
|
Me doing a play dough pinch test - not to sticky see ? |
|
Plays and folds nicely... READY !!!!!!!
Add your colouring and kneed it in...
Remember if it is sticky after adding smellies or colours just reheat a bit till it evaporates out... |
