My Favorite Play Dough Recipe

I've tried several play dough recipes and this one is, hands down, my favorite. It's super quick, it's easy for Ava to help me make it, it makes a soft dough, it lasts a long time, and (most importantly) it's not too loaded with salt so your hands don't feel sick-nasty the second you touch it. :)  

Play Dough

1 C Flour
1 C Water
1/4 C Salt
1 TBSP Vegetable Oil
2 tsp Cream of Tarter
Food Coloring (actual coloring or a kool-aid packet will do)
Sparkles, optional
Little helping hands.

Pour all ingredients in a sauce pan. Stir until everything is mixed well. Once the mixture is (mostly) clump free. Heat over MEDIUM heat. Stir, Stir Stir. Just keep stirring until the Play Dough is formed. It will  form one big clump. Remove from heat, and knead by hand.

Note: You can add the food coloring and/or sparkles at the end so you can make several colors in one batch.
