Just use a tiny bit of red. Glad the playdoh worked well
I have Red, Pink, Blue, Green and Yellow food colouring. There was only 5 at my Woolies. Did you get the Queens ones or did you buy in the box with the 4 little tubes?

I bought the box with 4 little tubes Mel. I thought that's all they had

Ok, sounds like I'm a dag here Yeah should have known that a bit of red with white base turn into pink But beetroot juice is also a great idea (although we don't have beetroots in this house very often as I hate them )

Megsie, we ended up with the most disgusting colour this morning I tried to make purple by mixing red & blue but didn't get it quite right and Becky added a bit of green in it, so now we have something resembles to Vegemite instead

try giving Becky just two colour combinations.so then you won't end up with just brown playdough
