Oh how I love the Crock Pot. Did you know you can use it to make things other than food? Like, Play Dough! This was our fun little project for the day. Something about making and playing with your own play dough is much more fun than just scooping it out of a plastic can from the store.
Here is the recipe I used from Crockpot365.blogspot.com:
Ingredients:
– 2 cups flour (or you can use rice flour to make it gluten free)
– 1 cup corn starch
– 1 cup salt
– 1/4 cup cream of tartar
– 2 cups hot water
– 2 t cooking oil
Directions:
1. Plug in your crockpot and turn to low to warm up slowly.
1. Plug in your crockpot and turn to low to warm up slowly.
2. Dump in your dry ingredients, stirring to evenly distribute.
3. Add the water and oil. Close the lid and switch the heat to high.
4. Set a timer and check your play dough every 30 minutes, stirring well each time. Mine was done after a half hour! But others could take up to 2. I think it was because I used a larger Crock Pot.
You will know it’s done or close to done when the playdough begins to form a ball when you stir it.
5. When that happens, remove the stoneware insert from your crock pot and stir some more. Dump it out onto a smooth surface and begin to knead—-be careful—- it’s going to be hot. If your dough is overly sticky, add a bit of cornstarch; if overly dry, add a touch more hot water. Each time you make the dough, the water required will be a bit different, depending on the humidity in the air.
6. Separate the dough into manageable lumps and push a hole into the center for a few drops of food coloring.
Squish the dough around to distribute the desired color. 
I made a snowman in honor of our “Snow Day.” We didn’t end up getting any snow but preschool was still 2 hours delayed (my son only goes half day).
My son made this:
He said it was a volcano :o) And it’s the best volcano I’ve ever seen!

Thank You Beth! It is so exciting to be featured! I am grateful to you!
What a great recipe. I love that you can make play dough with items you can find in your kitchen. I was wondering if you would consider linking up and sharing your post. I am hosting a bloghop where bloggers can share their fun frugal kid-activities. http://www.funfrugalmommy.blogspot.com
I would be honored to link up to your bloghop! Thank you for giving me the opportunity. I am a new fan/follower!
Is it safe to eat?
This play dough calls for ingredients found in your pantry, but not in amounts you would serve to your child. If a little is ingested, no worries (little brother tasted a little when I turned my head!). But if large amounts are consumed, I would be worried about the salt content. It doesn't taste good so I'm sure your toddler would spit it right back out :o)
I love this! I will try it this way next time.
Thanks Miranda! Let me know how it turns out 🙂
I have never made playdough before (great idea!)…does the dough stain things because of the food coloring in it? I know regular playdough doesn't, but I was just thinking about the time I made cupcakes with "grass" on them and how the green food coloring stained my fingers (and teeth, and pretty much anything else it came in contact with!) so badly!
I did get some food coloring on my hands but it washed off by the end of the day and the play dough hasn't stained anything it has touched. Make the play dough into a ball and poke a hole in the middle with your finger. Put about 2-3 drops of food coloring in the hole and then start kneading the ball around. This will limit the amount of food coloring that gets on your hands. Once the food coloring is worked into the dough it isn't a problem. Thanks for the comment!!
I want to make this this weekend!
It's so simple! It would be a fun weekend project!
Will this play dough harden
I love your crochet patterns and I browsed through your crockpot recipes. Since you have small children I thought you might be interested in "Peanut Butter PlayDoh. There are a few different variations but all are completely edible. Some have honey and others use Karo syrup. My kids loved it when they were younger. Just do a Google search for "Peanut Butter PlayDoh" and Have Fun!
The inverter can convert 24V( for diesel powered car) DC of automobile to 220V/50HZ AC, and its output rated power is 1000W.feng
Can I make this and leave it over night? How should I store it? THANKS!
Will the snowman or whatever harden and keep for decorations? Can they be baked to harden them to keep? I have no kids so I have not dealt with play dough.

On our travels to france we once ate something similar, it had cheese, potatos and a very tasty dough around it, unfortunately I don’t remember what is was called. Will try out this recipe, maybe it’s what we had then? In any case, a glass of red wine goes very well with this.Darren Wogman

Qu’est-ce qu’une greffe de cheveux ? La greffe de cheveux est une technique bien connue qui consiste à extraire des racines de cheveux à l’arrière de la tête d’une personne et à les implanter dans la zone chauve. Il existe aujourd’hui deux techniques bien connues dans le domaine de l’implantation capillaire : la FUE et la DHI. Ils sont réalisés par des médecins très expérimentés dans ce domaine. Mais le problème est que cette opération est très chère en France, c’est pourquoi de nombreuses personnes vont dans des pays qui pratiquent cette opération jusqu’à 3 ou 4 fois moins cher qu’en France ou en Suisse. La greffe de cheveux turquie est un exemple de pays qui réalise cette opération à moindre coût. Les prix ne signifient pas que la qualité du travail est mauvaise, la Turquie est le pays qui présente les résultats les plus positifs au monde. Des milliers de personnes se rendent dans ce beau pays pour y recevoir un traitement capillaire.
La chirurgie de la sleeve gastrique est un type de chirurgie de perte de poids. La chirurgie de perte de poids est aussi appelée chirurgie bariatrique.
