Taste Safe Play Dough

* Even though this is titled taste safe playdough, I don't encourage your baby to eat tones of it, tasting it is safe but it's not a meal.

What you need:

1 cup of cornstarch

1 ½ cups of baby rice cereal

3 tbs vegetable oil

1/4 cup fruit puree of your choice

1 Tbs water

Instructions:

Pour all dry ingredients, baby rice cereal and cornflour into a large bowl. Add 3tbs of vegetable oil and ½ cup of fruit puree.

Combine well with an electric mixer. If the mixture is sticky, slowly add more Baby Rice Cereal and mix well with electric mixer completely before adding more. If the mixture is dry, slowly add small amounts of water and mix until the dough is smooth and malleable.

Turn mixture out onto the bench and knead by hand until the mixture is smooth. Store in a plastic zip lock bag or air tight container in the fridge. When removed from the fridge, kneading with warm hands will soften the play dough again.

This play dough recipe does not include any preservative and will last several days in the refrigerator. The play dough life expectancy will depend on temperature, how long the play dough has been left out and how many children have played with the dough. Please always check the play dough for mold or unpleasant odours before giving it to children.
