Play Dough Recipe
I used to make a batch of this play-dough once a month in the classroom. Changing the colors for the season. Although 20 little hands stayed busy shaping and molding, the play dough never dried out!
You'll need:
Flour 3cups
Salt 1 1/2 cups
Water 3 cups
Vegetable Oil 2TB.
Cream of tartar 1TB.
Food coloring few drops or unsweetened "Kool-Aid" 1pkg.

Mix ALL of the ingredients in a large saucepan.
Cook over medium low heat, until the dough comes away 
from the edges of the pan and it becomes difficult to move the spoon. Remove from heat. Cool until it can be handled.
Place on counter or wax paper knead 3-4 times.
Store in an air tight container.

Bread and Glue Clay   
Easy Recipe
You’ll need :
8 slices of day-old white bread
(Less expensive fluffy type)
1 /2 C. White Glue
Food color
Flour for work space
Wax paper

To Make:
Remove Crusts. Break bread into small pieces and put in mixing bowl. Pour glue over bread. Mix with one hand until 
it becomes a sticky mass. Take the out of the bowl and 
form into a ball .With both hands keep patting into a smaller ball until it becomes just slightly tacky. Dust work surface 
with a small amount of flour and knead gently until it 
becomes smoother and more pliable. Knead firmly at this 
time. Knead until texture is satiny, about 5 mins.

Wrap tightly with plastic to store. Remember to seal the unused portion while working.

To color dough tear of portion needed , flatten and add 
color directly onto dough. Blend until satiny again.
Add flour, if needed to achieve the proper texture.

Air dry. Drying times vary depending on thickness. 
To speed up drying place on cookie sheet and leave 
overnight in an unlit oven. Paint with acrylic paints 
(optional) and seal with spray on finish.

Easy Tip - Clean Up Time
Keep sticky, paint covered hands away from walls and furniture, with a wet soapy washcloth next to the project area.
