Making Play Dough


We have been working on forces in Science this month. We looked at the forces behind floating and sinking and today we were looking at pushing, pulling (and a little bit of gravity!). 

We looked at the forces used to play with some toy cars, a marble game, Tiddly winks and a wooden fox toy. 

The best way to try out all of the different types of forces though was with play dough so we decided to make some for ourselves! 

If you want to make some more at home, our recipe was.... 
2 cups of flour 
4 tablespoons of cream of tartar 
2 tablespoons of cooking oil 
1 cup of salt 
2 cups of water 
Food colouring 

You can check out some of the photos from today here!
