Expert Crafting Tips
The more you play with play dough, the drier it will become. If your play dough becomes dry too soon, try adding a drop or two of water and kneading with your hands before adding more. Alternatively, vegetable or coconut oil could work just as effectively in making play dough soft again.
Store play dough in an airtight container to extend its shelf life and prevent early drying out. For optimal results, wrap or seal it in plastic wrap and flatten it before sealing into an airtight plastic bag and storing in an airtight container.
Cream of tartar is the secret ingredient to creating soft play dough. Together with salt, it also helps preserve it and helps ensure the longevity of your dough.
This Easter-inspired play dough recipe makes an excellent way to fill plastic eggs for an Easter basket stuffer, or as an engaging spring sensory activity for kids! Plus it will keep them entertained all day long!
