Gluten-Free Playdough Recipe
Playing with regular playdough is too risky for kids with celiac disease, who can't eat gluten, a protein found in wheat and other grains. As you've probably guessed, most types of playdough contain gluten.
Try this recipe from Parents.com, which is safe for all kids: it uses rice flour and cornstarch, which don't contain gluten. It's also the perfect alternative for kids who are gluten-sensitive. Safe play time is the best kind of play time!
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup rice flour
- 1/2 cup cornstarch
- 1/2 cup salt
- 2 teaspoons cream of tartar
- 1 cup water 1 teaspoon cooking oil
- Food coloring, if desired
Directions:
Mix ingredients. Cook and stir on low heat for 3 minutes or until it forms a ball. Cool completely before storing in a sealable plastic bag.
