This lady (a RL friend) is the playdough queen .

her basic pdough recipe is lovely, and the variations fab.

A cup is 250 ml

One I use is easy and works every time. I used a smallish mug as a cup.

1 cup of plain flour
1 cup of water
½ cup of salt
1 tablespoon oil
2 teaspoons cream of tartar
Few drops of colouring

Put all ingredients in a pan and cook over a moderate heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring all the time until it thickens. Take out of pan and when cool enough, knead a bit, Store in Clingfilm or foil in the fridge.

i use the same recipe as yellow flowers, but i microwave it. couple of minutes then stir like a mad woman, repeat a few times but just a minute in microvat a time, can sometimes end up with a few crusty bits to dig out.
can last a couple of weeks in a sealed tub. I use ikea beakers as cup measurement.

I use this one a lot. I divide it into 4 for colouring. I agree with molehillmountian that a cup is 250g approx.

This video recipe is so easy to do and I loved the idea of adding the colouring at the beginning so you don't end up with multi coloured hands and lots of kneading at the end. It keeps for ages too in the fridge in a plastic container with a lid or a ziplock bag. I add glitter too as this is always fun
Anyway have a look here for the recipe
