Play Dough Fun

Here is something for you to whip up with the kids at the kitchen table on a rainy day. (This my mom's recipe)

Mix:
1 cup salt
2 cups flour
2 tablespoons alum

Add:
1 & 3/4 cups boiling water
2 tablespoons plus two teaspoons baby oil

Mix well, cool, divide and add coloring (food coloring works the best). Store in covered containers or zip lock bags.
