Two Ingredient Playdough

On Monday we were lucky enough to have some lovely friends over. I had seen a post on making playdough using corn flour and conditioner over at Laughing Kids Learn and decided we should have a go.
The weather was lovely so perfect for some outdoor (less mess to clean up then) fun!

Here is what you need

2 1/4 Cups Corn Flour
1 Cup Conditioner (we used the cheapest sort I could find)

We spent awhile measuring out and smelling the ingredients and then had a free for all with the mixing!!
It took awhile for the mixture to come together but when it did it was the most amazing soft and sweet smelling playdough. We didn't find that it was stretchy, but wonder if we added more conditioner (something to try next time) it would be. It was super easy and the kids had a great time creating with it. We didn't keep this batch, but think it would last just fine if stored in airtight container. (ours ended up with lots of sticks, leaves and dirt through it)!

Glad we gave this one a go and will try it again with some more conditioner and maybe some food colouring!

We love playdough and here are some links to more of our playdough fun!
