This is a fun project to do at home with your kids! Play dough is easy to make, and it’s great to get your kids involved in the kitchen, too. Plus, you’ll know exactly what went into it! (I tried making this with gluten free flour (Pamela’s) but it resulted in a rubbery, ball-like substance instead of a dough. Perhaps another brand/formulation would work better!)
