Mix 2 cups of white flour and 1/2 cup table salt in a bowl. Add 1/2 cup water and stir for a few minutes. Slowly add 1/4 cup water while turning dough in bowl. Form dough into a ball and work in any remaining dry flour and salt. Knead 5 minutes. Shape dough into desired shapes, adding a little water to join pieces together. Use cookie cutters for preschoolers. Bake your creations at 250 degrees for 15-30 minutes until hard. Time will vary according to the thickness of the dough. Let cool completely. Dough can be painted with acrylic paint and sealed with clear lacquer. Love, Mrs. Brown.
