Gluten free playdough!

[glinda]

Hi all!I am a reception teacher and I make my own playdough. However, there is an autistic girl in my class who tends to eat it! She is on a strict gluten free diet so I want to make some gluten free playdough. The trouble is that I suspect it is the gluten in the flour that gives the playdough its stretchy doughy consistency. Is it possible to make playdough with gluten free flour? Has anyone tried it or come up with a good alternative?
Thanks

yes gluten free playdough is possible.

hang on, will hunt for a recipe

here you go gluten free playdough

can I just say thankyou, as the mother ofan ASD girl, for bothering to do this. you would be surprised how many places don't.

Other than the fact that isn't GF flour, that recipe isn't any different to the one I use for normal playdough.

I didn't realise cornflour was gluten free

Brilliant! Thanks silverfrog. Off to make some for tomorrow!
