Lemon Play Dough

1 1/2 cups water
2 teaspoons liquid food coloring
2 tablespoons cooking oil
2 cups flour
4 tablespoons cream of tartar
1 or 2 drops lemon oil

In a large pot, combine water, food coloring and oil.

Add flour, salt and cream of tartar.

Over medium heat, cook and stir for about five minutes, until a ball of dough forms.

Cool the dough for five minutes and then knead it with your hands until smooth.

Store in a zip-type bag or an airtight container in the refrigerator when not in use.
