Playtime:: Candy Cane Play Dough

2 cups of plain flour
½ cup salt
2 tbsps Cream of Tartar
1½ cups of boiling water
2 tbsps oil (I use vegetable)
Food Colouring (optional)

Add your flour, salt and Cream of Tartar to a bowl
Add your oil, colouring (optional) and boiling water in a jug and then pour into your dry ingredients
You will need to work quickly for this bit as you want to add the water while it is boiling hot. Please assist children with boiling water and maintain constant supervision. Stir all the ingredients until they all come together Knead vigorously

To Make Candy Cane Playdough
divide the mix into two and color one half red via red food coloring gel. The other one can be left plain as it should be white.
Add peppermint extract to the dough to offer it the scent of candy cane. IF you desire a stronger scent try peppermint oil
