You will need 2 c. flour, 1 c. salt, 4 T. Cream of Tartar, 2 T. Oil and 2 c. cold water.
And a pot.
Add to pot : 2 c. Flour
4 T. Cream of Tartar
1 c. Salt
MIx it all together well.
Add 2 T. Oil ( I use Canola because that is what I cook with.)
Add 2 c. water and stir.
Turn the heat on to Med / High and keep stirring.
Turn the heat on to Med / High and keep stirring. 
Oops I forgot. Add your color and scent. We use Kool Aid. This time Shane chose Pink. The color didn't turn out that bright but it smells lemony. 
Keep Stirring.
This is what you are looking for. Its almost play dough.
Soon it will start peeling away from the sides of the pot. As soon as all of it forms into a ball it is done. Take it off the heat.
Knead it out a few times on the table to cool down. If your little ones will let you.
This Play Dough keeps for a LONG time, we just keep it in a Gal. Ziplock bag in with the bucket of play toys.
Play and Enjoy!

Thanks Christy! It's a lot less intimidating when I see the pictures! I thought it was going to be so messy to make! Clean up looks like a cinch!
Guess what? My boys found a little piece of this left over at my mom's house this weekend and they brought it to church in their pockets! I made them throw it away, and told them we could make more, so your post was just in time!
This is really great playdough. It lasts so long.
I love you! Hope all is well!
