Super Soft Playdough

I have another playdough recipe for ya today. This super soft playdough is NOT edible but is just as easy to make as the recipe I shared yesterday. No cooking is required for this recipe.
It only takes 2 ingredients to make this. Additionally, they are items you should already have in the house – cornstarch and hair conditioner. I know it sounds kind of crazy, but it totally works. Have the kids get involved with making the dough. This is ready to play with in under 10 minutes.

The conditioner is what makes this super soft. It will also take on the color of whatever the color your conditioner is. Mine was like a turquoise color. You can always add food coloring to the dough if you want it to be a specific color. If you don’t care about the color just leave it as is.
Also, not all hair conditioners are the same consistency. You may need to adjust the amounts just a bit so it is dough consistency. Don’t be afraid to add more hair conditioner if needed to adjust the softness.

Here is what you need to make the
