Description

A luminescent twist on classic homemade playdough that’s fun and safe for kids.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 cup salt
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 4 tablespoons cream of tartar
  • Food coloring (optional)
  • Glow-in-the-dark powder (non-toxic)

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, salt, and cream of tartar.
  2. In a saucepan, combine the water, vegetable oil, and food coloring (if using). Whisk the wet ingredients until well mixed.
  3. Gradually add the dry mixture to the saucepan, stirring constantly.
  4. Heat over medium heat until the mixture begins to thicken—about 3-5 minutes.
  5. When it starts to form a dough and pulls away from the sides, remove it from heat.
  6. Stir in the glow-in-the-dark powder until evenly incorporated.
  7. Once cool enough to handle, knead the dough on a clean surface until smooth.

Notes

Store in an airtight container at room temperature. Experiment with different colors and scents.
