Instructions
In a large pot, add flour, salt, and cream of tartar. Stir with a whisk until thoroughly mixed.
Measure water and add approximately 10 drops green and 10 drops yellow food coloring or until a lime green color is achieved. Use 10 drops yellow for the yellow batch. Mix until color is fully dissolved.
Add colored water, vegetable oil, and glycerin to flour mixture in pot. Mix thoroughly with a spatula.
Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until almost playdough texture. Do not overcook as playdough continues to cook a bit and will get dry if overcooked. Remove from heat.
Remove playdough from pot and place on a plate. Once playdough is cool enough for an adult to handle, knead well.
Cover with a wet paper towel until cool enough to play with or store. Store in a zipper bag or other air tight container. Store in a cool, dry place.
