Patti’s Play Dough

This section is for Patti’s Play Center KIDS! Remember, if you are making play dough or a recipe, always have an adult help you!

  • 5 Cups All Purpose Flour
  • 4 Cups Water
  • 1 – ¼ Cup Salt
  • 5 Tablespoons Vegetable Oil
  • ¼ Cup Cream of Tartar
  • 2 Tablespoons Food Coloring

Mix flour, salt and cream of tartar in a large pot. Add water and oil. Cook and stir over medium heat for 5 – 8 minutes. Add food coloring to arrive at the desired shade, and continue cooking until the time is up. The mixture will look like a globby mess and you’ll be sure it’s not going to turn out, but it will! When it forms a ball in a pot, roll it onto a generously floured surface. Knead, adding flour only as necessary, until it looks like play dough. It will be a little stickier than commercial play dough, but in 24 hours it will be perfect.

affordable, convenient, part-time childcare

Patti’s Play Center provides a nurturing and well-supervised social environment where children are encouraged to develop new friendships and explore interests at their own pace. Offering part-time childcare programs for 2–4 year olds, Patti’s Play Center fills a unique niche. Patti’s is not a daycare or a preschool, but a structured play center designed to both prepare young children for their first preschool experience, and complement an older child’s preschool schedule.
