1 cup flour
1/2 cup salt
1 cup water
1 tablespoon oil
2 teaspoons cream of tartar
Food coloring

Combine all ingredients. Heat in a saucepan, stirring constantly. Cool slightly. Knead. Color may be added when kneading or as part of the liquid. Store in airtight containers and it will keep several months. Just like playdough, except for the smell!
