And now for something completely different - Gluten free play dough

My daughter Kc is Celiacs so off to the absolutely gluten free show we went and what did we find? Gluten free aromatherapy play dough. Wow that was a mouth full. My girls are either too old or too young for that but i thought i would share the recipe i found and the online shop where you can buy it if you dont want to make it.


The recipe came from www.falafelandthebee.com who got it from  the Celiac Sprue Association.

1 cup water
