Demonstration Speech: Play Doh
Play dough is a fun, clay- like substance that kids love! (and that I love) It is very easy to make, and provides hours entertainment! If you’re babysitting, just make this, and you’ll entertain the kids for hours. Trust me I’ve done it before.. It can be expensive to buy at stores, but it's very easy to make and costs nothing to make it at home, and I’m going to show you how to make it today.
The materials you will need are:
1/2 cup salt
1/2 cup water
1 cup flour food dye (any color, be creative!)
Step 1: Find a medium sized bowl for mixing, and if you’re working with kids, I would suggest covering the space you’re working on.
Step 2: Measure out 1 cup of four, and pour it into the bowl.
Then, measure out 1/2 cup of salt, and add that to the bowl, too.
Lastly, fill the measuring cup with 1/2 cup of water and pour it into the mixing bowl.
Step 3: Take a spoon - any spoon will do; and use it to mix up the ingredients. Mix it until it's mushy and it's neither watery nor floury. It’s going to look kind of gross while you’re mixing it too. ---- This is what it will look like after you mix it. Then you pick it, and make sure you all the little pieces from the bottom, and just kind of play with it a little. Then separate the dough into the sections you want to dye different colors.
Step 4: Add few drops of food dye to the mush then this is where you get to use your hands again, you pick it up and start kneading it. This is easy, just play around with it. If desired, you can add more food dye to improve the color.
Step 5: You're finished! If it's a little sticky, knead a tiny bit of flour into it. And now you can use your imagination and make whatever you'd like!
Play Dough in its first makings: * Noah McVicker and Joseph McVicker are the makers of play dough. * One weird fact about play dough is that it was originally designed as a wall paper cleaner. However, its similarity to regular modeling clay without the toxicity or mess made Play
