I did this today with my 4 year old. I had a measuring cup out that looked like a duck. He started talking for the duck so I grabbed some near by cars and he played with the cars and the cloud dough forever, then he gave the cars a bath. Lots of fun
This is my next activity to try! I'm my 3 yr old boy, who loves playing in the sand at nanny and pop pop's, is going to love being able to play in the sand rain or shine!!
He is playing in this amazing stuff as an typing! He has his little tractors, little farm animals, a bowl, and a spoon. And he's sitting right in the middle of it all! This is great! I love it!!! And it smells good!! =)
We had a lot of fun with this recipe. We did it at the table in plastic containers. After mixing up the flour and oil for a while, we added food coloring (did not do much) and then a little water (colorful and sticky), and then more water (stickier), and more water (watery mess)... The boys had a blast! Thanks!!
My 21 month old and I did this today and she had a BLAST! We added red glitter, which she loved, and used tea cups, heart shaped measuring cups, and an ice cream scoop. Thanks for the great idea.

ReplyDeleteJeanette, I made our batch more than a month ago and kept it stored in a zip lock bag. It has stayed soft and fluffy the entire time!
