Playdough is a favorite past time here and the little ones never seem to get tired of playing with it. This is my go-to play dough recipe with the addition of some calming essential oils. Enjoy!
ORANGE LAVENDAR PLAYDOUGH
3 cups flour
1 cup salt
4 tablespoons cream of tartar
1/3 cup melted coconut oil
2 cups boiling water
several drops each of lavender essential oi, sweet orange essential oil, and red food coloring
Mix flour, salt, and cream of tartar in bowl. Add coconut oil, water, essential oils, and food coloring (I just used a couple of drops to make a blush color dough). Stir until dough forms. If it's too sticky, add more flour. Turn onto floured surface and knead until you have the right consistency. Store in an airtight container for several weeks.
