Using this homemade Play Dough recipe:
- 2 cups of flour
- 1 cup of salt
- 2 cups of water
- 1/2 cup of oil
- 4 teaspoons of cream of tartar
- Green, Blue Yellow, and Red food coloring
Mix all the ingredients in a large saucepan mixing until almost smooth, and add the food coloring until you get the color you want, I favored the green... and keep in mind that it will get darker when it is cooked.
Then cook it on the stove over medium heat, and stirring it the whole time, it will start to thicken, and you just keep stirring. Remove when it looks like play dough and allow to cool. Store in an air tight container.
We found some dinosaur skeleton toys at the Dollar Store, two in a pack! Then we wrapped them in the play dough... plastic leaves would also work well if your dinosaur is a herbivore.
He has been hands deep in dinosaur poop all afternoon! :oD
