How To Make Playdough

1. In a bowl, mix the flour, salt, cream of tartar, glitter and oil.
2. Add the boiling water (be very careful…this is best done by an adult).
3. Stir until mixture becomes a sticky dough.
4. When it’s cool enough to handle, take it out of the bowl and knead for a few minutes until it is a good consistency.
5. It it’s too sticky, sprinkle a little bit of flour on the counter and knead it in.
