This Play dough recipe using CREAM OF TARTAR, really does make the BEST PLAY DOUGH EVER! Our other play dough video is without cream of tartar as it isn't an ingredient that you may have lying around at home. BUT - if you do happen to have it at home, or find it at the grocery store (I found mine in the spice aisle, near the salt), you need to try this recipe!!! :) Here are the ingredients and how to do it:
INGREDIENTS:
Flour
Salt
Oil (any kind)
Cream of Tartar
Boiling Hot Water
Plastics Gloves (optional)
HOW TO MAKE THE BEST PLAY DOUGH EVER:
1. Pour 2 cups of Flour into a bowl
2. Add 1/2 cup of Salt
3. Mix in 2 Tbsp Cream of Tartar
4. Add 2 Tbsp of oil (I used canola oil for this recipe, but any kitchen oil is fine)
5. Add 1.5 Cup of Boiling Hot Water (be careful not to mix it with your hands right away - HOT!)
6. Mix together until it gets nice and smooth
7. Separate dough into however many colors you would like to make
8. Make a little bowl shape (with your finger) into each ball for the food coloring
9. Use plastic gloves (to prevent staining on hands) to mix in coloring
That's it! :)
PLAY TIME! HAVE FUN and ENJOY!
The invention of play dough was actually a fortunate accident. Way back in the 1930s, Noah McVicker created a substance that looked like putty out of flour, water, salt, boric acid and mineral oil. His family’s soap company — Kutol Products — in Cincinnati, Ohio, marketed his creation as wallpaper cleaner!
McVicker’s special putty-like substance was an excellent wallpaper cleaner, because it didn’t contain any toxic chemicals, could be reused and would not stain the wallpaper. Eventually, teachers learned that the wallpaper cleaner could be used as a modeling compound to make art and craft projects at school.
It wasn’t until after World War II that Noah McVicker’s nephew, Joseph McVicker, joined the company and learned that their wallpaper cleaner was being used for arts and crafts in schools. Joseph thought it would be a good idea to give the product a new name — Play-Doh® — and market it to schools, teachers and department stores.
The new product was an immediate success. In 1956, the McVickers started the Rainbow Crafts Company to make and sell Play-Doh®. Macy’s in New York and Marshall Field’s in Chicago began selling the product. The new company also began to advertise the product on popular children’s television shows, such as Captain Kangaroo. Within one year, its sales had already reached almost $3 million!
Over time, the exact ingredients in Play-Doh® have changed. As technology has improved, so has Play-Doh®. Although the exact recipe is a secret, Play-Doh® remains a popular modeling compound for art and craft projects, because it is still nontoxic, easy to use and simple to clean up.
Today, Play-Doh® is owned by a company named Hasbro that continues to make and sell the product through its Playskool line. In 2003, the Toy Industry Association added Play-Doh® to its “Century of Toys List,” which contains the 100 most memorable and creative toys of the last 100 years.
Play-Doh® comes in a variety of bright and bold colors. There are also a series of related products and toys that make use of Play-Doh®. Since its “invention,” over 700 million pounds of Play-Doh® have been sold around the world!
