Making dough (and our dough recipe)

Back to News

19th Apr 2016

At nursery we love to make dough, it is a little bit messy and lots of fun. We use a really easy recipe.

4 cups of flour

2 cups of salt

1/2 cup of cooking oil

8 teaspoons of cream of tartar

3-4 cups of almost boiling water

food colour/spices/smells - you can add lots of things ... Use your imagination.

Mix the dry ingredients and oil together then add the water until it looks like dough. Remember the water is hot so you need a big person to do this part!

This week we have pink, lemon smelling dough.
