play dough roseThis dough is amazing. It is made with conditioner and corn starch. The texture is very soft and silky. It's perfect for younger kids because it is so easy to work with. Just keep an eye on them, to make sure they don't try to eat it. The dough feels wonderful. Even if I didn't have kids, I would probably make this up and play with it on those stressful days. I can't even describe how much I love this stuff! Oh, my kids liked playing with it, too!

Hi Judybottie. I'm not sure if this dough would air dry without cracking. I've tried looking it up for you, but don't see anyone who has tried it. Have you tried salt dough? I've tried that, with some success, when it is baked.

There's also a clay you can make, called porcelain clay, that air dries. That one dries beautifully and it is really nice to work with. The recipe I use is found on craftstylish.com, called Cold Porcelain. Hope this helps!
