Add 1\/4 cup of oil to one cup of water in a separate bowl then add the mixture to the dry ingredients. Squeeze 10-20 drops of food coloring into one cup of water and add it to the mixture. Mix well to make it smooth and to spread the color evenly. Cook the dough at low heat in a wide pan, stirring constantly until it becomes rubbery. Remove the dough from the heat and knead it for a few minutes. When it cools the kids can play too!<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #888888\">Photo: Gina Guillotine<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"_mcePaste\" style=\"width: 1px;height: 1px;overflow: hidden\">7246 East State Rd 44<br \/>\nLot 8<br \/>\nWildwood, FL 34785<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Play dough is the perfect modeling material for children.
