recipes for cloud dough, play dough, and play clay. I have a few recipes I found online and they were not that great.
Also how long do they last in your house? Now that winter is here (almost) I want to make sure I have some ready for use when the kiddos get antsy.
I searched them on here, but the search engine isn't being all that helpful. Just me?

My playdough recipe
2 cups flour
1 cup salt
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp cream of tartar
2 cups hot water
1 pkg koolaid (without sugar)
Mix ingredients together over med heat stirring constantly until a ball forms. Knead for 5 minutes. Store in airtight containers.
This keeps for about 4 months before it starts to get sticky. The colors are vibrant with the koolaid and the playdough smells like the flavor. It doesn't dye the skin and the recipe makes a nice big ball of each color.

This is the playdough recipe that I use too. I've found it works better and stays good for longer when it's the cooked recipe.
