Playdough (Cheaper than store bought, I think)

Playdough

Ingredients:
1 cup flour
½ cup salt (yes, ½ cup!)
1 tablespoon veg. oil
1 teaspoon alum
1 cup boiling water

Directions:
Mix the dry ingredients in a large bowl. Add the oil, then the boiling water. Mix, then knead the dough until smooth. Add food coloring of your choice, or split dough and make different colors. Store in tightly closed plastic bags. (Yes, it's edible and non-toxic, though salty!)


My mom made this for my brothers and sister and I a LOT. It's softer than regular playdough too.
