Hello there!
Last Saturday afternoon, my mommy and I tried to make our own play dough. We used the recipe from this site. I had so much fun because my cousins joined us and they also had a blast making it. After we make the play dough we immediately played, but unfortunately mommy forgot to take a picture of us playing.
This is our finished product.
At night I played again using our homemade play dough and my Play-Doh Picnic Set and animals. And here are some of my creations.
The play dough is incredibly soft and the smell is so nice because we used vanilla flavorings on it.
Here is the recipe that we used from Best Recipes with modification.
Ingredients:
- 2 cups plain flour
- 1 cup salt
- 1 tbs oil
- 1 cup cold water
- 2 drops liquid food colouring
- Few drops of vanilla flavoring
Method:
- Combine plain flour and salt
- Add water, food colouring and oil. Mix until ingredients are combined.
- 3 Knead well.
- If consistency is too wet add a little plain flour.
That’s it! Easy to make as easy as ABC.
How did your weekend go?

Thanks for the tip! Very useful for the preschool classroom! 🙂
Thanks for the tips! 🙂
I never thought we could make our own play dough at home! I used to think we had to buy it from Toy Kingdom! I’m a fan of play dough before and I used to have a variety of colors. This made me look back at how fun my childhood was… which is something other kids nowadays are missing.
I want to make homemade play dough but there’s no liquid food coloring in our palengke, only powdered, and then only one color.
Very easy steps. I look forward to trying out this recipe.
Many thanks for sharing.
Aww..seeing that reminds me of the time that I too made homemade playdough for the kids when they were younger to play with. IT was certainly better then the ones that are available in the stores.
Yes because we never know what chemicals they put in there. 🙂
Perfect for kids!
nice! How long does it last? 😀
I’m still using the dough. I’ll update you or this blog until it will expire.
It certainly looks very easy to do and is inexpensive too! You surely made many mommies happy. This is also good for pre-school teachers.
This is great! I’ll use this in Sunday School. 🙂 Thanks!!
Wow, we’ll definitely try this at home. I’ll be saving money from buying play dough at Toy Kingdom/ToysRUs. Thanks for sharing this recipe 🙂
As usual, we had a busy weekend and this week is as busy too. Thank you for sharing this. I’ll try this one and it’s definitely 100% safe for kids.
Awesome! This will come in handy for my little cousins, thanks for sharing! 🙂

Very useful! I’ll keep this in mind when my daughters want playdough
Thanks for sharing the recipe! I’m going to try this with my niece and nephew, we’re going to have fun for sure.
This is a good activity with my godchildren, nephews and nieces! Interactive and entails a lot of imagination.
Really looks easy. I’ll make some for my kids soon.
Sis how long does it last? This is perfect for my nieces and inaanaks!
It lasted one week. I throw it already but it smells nice pa naman. Usually it lasted months if you put it in the fridge. 🙂
This is a good alternative to those sold in the market. It is safer and non-toxic. I think adding food colors can be also an option.
Thank you for sharing your home made play dough! I’ll try to use this also with my toddler. I’m sure he’ll have a great time 🙂
