I am not sure what they made their "playdough" out of, but when I was little, I loved a dough made with peanut butter, sweetened condensed milk, and powdered sugar! I no longer have the exact recipie, but I still make it from time to time and just sort of mix ingredients until I have a nice consistency. Yummy!!!

P.S. I just did some web searching and found several recipies, one of which says it came from a Disney cookbook. The first is that one, and the second is one I found that I think is close to my original from Kindergarten! Enjoy...
