Here is a recipe for gluten-free play dough, courtesy of the Celiac Sprue Association. (Regular Play Doh, the popular children's modeling compound, contains gluten, which makes it unsafe for children with celiac disease.)
If you'd rather buy ready-made gluten-free play dough, two popular brands are Aroma Dough and Colorations. Colorations is sold by Discount School Supply.
