Play-Doh

The substance that would come to be known as Play-Doh was originally sold by a company called Kutol as a wallpaper cleaner. But walls in the 1950s were a lot less sooty than they had been in 1912, when the company was founded—coal's popularity was declining, and sales of the wallpaper cleaner were slumping. Kay Zufall, a teacher who happened to be the sister-in-law of one of Kutol's big wigs, came up with the idea of letting kids play with the stuff, and it was a big hit. Play-Doh hit the toy market in 1956, and it's become a phenomenon, having sold 3 billion cans since that debut. It's so iconic it even got its own perfume.

Commercially made "Playdoh" can be substituted with home made play dough. One needs to be careful to use a recipe that will not mold or spoil. Some formulas include alum or other unpleasant flavoring to discourage children from eating the dough.

Hear is one link to a basic play dough recipe:

You can't. The clay has too much oil in it and if you try to hang it the clay will slide off. It is also too heavy to stay hanging on the paper. Glue doesn't work with it either, I have tried it. You need to use something else. Something lighter.

I think u can dehydrate it

You can try to hot glue play doh to something, if you put enough on, it will most likely stay. The easiest way would to shape the play doh, let it dry so it's hard, and then glue it on, otherwise it could just fall off.

I'm not sure. Probably not, i know that you can use cream of tartar though.

Play-Doh was invented by 2 people and I forget what their

names are.

Actually, U.S. Patent No. 3,167,440 was granted to Noah McVicker and Joseph McVicker for a "plastic modeling composition of a soft, playable working consistency' that eventually became a product known as Play-Doh.

caca

Yes it depends what kind , if you made it at home then yes but i don't suggest putting the play dough you buy at the store to put in the freezer

over night will do the trick some times. some times only about 3 hours.

yes

Not really. Cream of tartar is a weak acid. You may want to try an equal amount of vinegar as a substitute. Cream of tartar does improve elasticity and dough smoothness. It is worthwhile to purchase cream of tartar.

if i child is handed some play dough they will begin to play with it. they wont make shapes but mostly a mess. as they being school and things like that they will learn the things they can do with play dough so they dont need teaching how to play they just need to be taught how to make shapes with the play dough

Children learn from play dough by learning how to make stuff with it. They also learn what is made from play dough, what it smells like and all the colours it has.

You can measure the volume of a lump of Play-Doh by using the water displacement method. Fill a graduated cylinder or a measuring cup with a known amount of water, then submerge the lump of Play-Doh in the water. The increase in water level indicates the volume of the Play-Doh, as the volume displaced by the Play-Doh is equal to its own volume. Subtract the initial water level from the new water level to get the volume of the Play-Doh.

Not effectively, as the playdoh is pliable and when you touch it or move it the super glue will loosen up and fall off.

no

It doesn't lose its volume

so kids dont eat it or get sick!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

Are you talking about bread form the store or bread you're baking from scratch? You can colour homemade bread with food colouring, just add it to the water in your mix. But if you try to colour already baked bread with food colouring, it will just go soggy. You could try softening up some butter and adding your food colouring to that before you butter your bread though. That would work.

There are over 3,000 colors

• well i love 2 make stuff like that too but there is one recipe that is awesome all u do is get 1/4 cup of water and a whole lot of flour at first u shoud do 1/2 cup of flour and mix for aprox. 3 minutes then when your ready to play and decide its not big enough add
• a tiny bit of water and then more flour knead it and by the way when you first play with it there will be a little bit of flour come oof so wash it off and it will soon stop doing that hope i helped alot!!!! <3 :-)

Yes. The ingestion of play dough, depending on the formulation and circumstances of exposure, could potentially produce sodium or salt poisoning, and could also result in a gastrointestinal tract blockage if a large enough quantity is consumed. Homemade varieties tend to contain larger amounts of salt than commercial ones do, so the risk of poisoning can be higher.
