In a zip loc bag, place 1 tablespoon Elmer's glue, 1 tablespoon water and 2 drops of food coloring Mix well. In a container mix 1/2 cup water and 1 tablespoon Borax. After the glue, water and food coloring have been mixed, add 1 tablespoon of the borax mixture. Close Ziploc and mix well. The result is a very, very close resemblance to the real silly putty.

I can't see your recipe but here is one that you can try for play dough. And also a couple for silly putty.
Peanut Butter Play Dough
1 (18 oz.) peanut butter
6 tsp. honey
Non-fat dry milk or milk plus flour to right consistency
Mix all ingredients together.
Shape and decorate with raisins, chocolate chips; you name it!
SILLY PUTTY
2 c. Elmers School glue
1 c. liquid starch
Mix together until ball forms. Silly Putty will be wet and slimmy at first as children play with it, the wetness will mix into the glue. *Note: Silly Putty will stick to clothing, carpet etc. Encourage children to push sleeves up and play with it at a table. *It does launder out clothes.
SILLY PUTTY #2
1 small paper cup
Liquid starch
2 oz. white liquid glue
Food coloring (opt.)
Fill small paper cup 1/2 way full of liquid starch. Add about 2 ounces of white liquid glue. Stir with finger for about 30 seconds. Pour off liquid starch. Use finger to keep working the clump of silly putty. Work until not really wet and messy. Then work in palms until it gets to a good dough texture. Store in a plastic bag.
