I think it is a ratio of 2:1 Cornflour:Water with dye added. So 2 cups cornflour to 1 cup of water.

So you just mix it together? No heating or anything like that?

nope just mix it all up i like to use a little warm watter at first helps to disolve the soap flakes just keep adding water/ soap flakes till it feels right!
with the corn flour dont use heat or it will start to cook and well thats not fun!
do you want a quick play dough recipee too?
1 cup flour
1/2 cup salt
1 Ts cream of taretare
1 Ts oil
1 cup boiling water
mix it all up and need in the food colouring
