Directions:

Stir together the flour, salt and cream of tarter in a large pot.

Next add the water and oil. If you're only making one color, add in the color now as well.

Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly. Continue stirring until the dough has thickened and begins to form into a ball.

Remove from heat and form into a ball. Allow to cool slightly and then knead until smooth.  Once it's all kneaded you're ready to PLAY.

Store the play dough inside zip lock bags once done to keep soft. Keeps for up to 3 months.
