Homemade Play-Doh

- Use wheat flour or all purpose flour (maida) dough instead of store bought Play-Doh.
-This is especially useful for toddlers who love playing with Play-Doh, but may end up putting them into their mouths.
- Even leftover poori/chapathi dough could be used.
- These also can be shaped into butterflies, plates, bags, bows, etc., that the kids can paint and keep them occupied during vacation.

-If the kids need colorful play-doh, just mix plant/veg based coloring to the maida dough.

- Orange - Carrot juice
- Red/Pink - Beetroot juice. Reduce the amount of juice to make pink.
- Green - Any leaf juice
- Brown - A few tsp of coffee decoction
- Yellow - Turmeric powder


Steps:

1. Make the shapes out of the dough.
2. Dry them under sun for at least a couple of days. Birds tend to peck on these, so cover them with a thin cloth or net.
3. They harden and the kids will be able to paint them.
