Best play dough ever!

I love making  play dough for my little brother Michael. He's only four but he knows what kind of color and smell he wants his play dough to turn out too. Today we are making a grey and licorice smelling play dough. To make play dough from scratch you will need the following:

1 measuring  of water
1/4 cup of salt
2 tbs cream of tarter
2 tbs vegetable oil
1tbs glycerin
Food coloring of choice
Scent of choice
Bowl
Now to start place 1cup of water in the microwave. Once boiled add the oil, glycerin, food coloring and scent into the measuring cup and mix. Next in the bowl mix in the flour, salt and cream of tarter till well distributed. Then pour the measuring cup liquid into the bowl and mix well. Add less water to the mix about one tablespoon. Once mixed and slightly cool take a spoon scoop out some  into your hand and need. The play dough might be sticky at first just keep needing it. Soon in a matter of five to ten minutes your play dough should be ready. Finally you can surprise your child with ready to play play dough.
