What are some ways to make your own plasticine?

People who grew up in the countryside often played with mud when they were young, but children in cities usually did not have the conditions to play with mud, so people invented plasticine to replace mud for children to play with. There are many plasticine products on the market now, and parents can buy them for their children to play with. Playing with plasticine is a very enjoyable process for children, and it is also helpful for developing children's intelligence. In addition, parents can also make their own plasticine for their children to play with.

First, method one:

● Mix together one and a half cups of flour, half a cup of salt, a quarter cup of vegetable oil, about a quarter cup of water, and a few drops of food coloring.

●Knead until soft. If the dough is too wet add a little flour, otherwise add a little water.

●Continue kneading until the dough is soft and the colors are evenly mixed.

●Put in a sealed container or plastic bag and refrigerate.

In addition, when making plasticine with children, I added some Vaseline for preservation.

Second, method 2:

●Mix one cup of salt, half a cup of flour and 3/4 cup of cold water, then heat.

●Keep stirring the mixture and it will become viscous after two to three minutes.

●Form the sticky mixture into a dough and place on wax paper or tin foil to cool.

●Let it cool for a while and then knead it again.

●The salt dough is ready to use.

●Wrap salt dough in wax paper or place in a plastic bag to store for several days.

Third, method three:

Tools: a pair of plastic disposable gloves, some flour, cooking oil, food coloring (dissolved in a small bowl), and a cutting board.

Operation: First, mix appropriate amounts of water, salad oil and food coloring, and then start kneading the dough. While kneading, pay attention to whether it is too dry or too thin. If it is too dry, add a little water. If it is too thin, add some flour. The salad oil makes the clay sticky and less likely to dry out. After kneading the dough evenly, it's done!

Fourth, Method 4:

Container: pot (a frying pan is best), small household spoon

Ingredients: 4 portions of flour (50ml small measuring cup, one cup is one portion)

3 parts water

1 spoon of fine salt

1 tablespoon cooking oil

10 drops of food coloring (add or subtract as needed based on your desired color depth)

Production:

●Mix the flour and water well, and knead carefully until there are no lumps.

●Add oil, salt, and coloring.

●Pour the above semi-finished products into the pot and heat them. Keep turning the dough over and over until it becomes translucent.
