Cloud Dough: A little kid's dream

Pin It



We first made cloud dough fall 2011.  And my son LOVED it!!  He plays in it all the time.  We keep it in a Rubbermaid.  Not sure I should say this but we haven't noticed anything wrong with it, so we continue to use it.  He has dumped plenty of it out on the ground etc.. over the months.  I though it may be time to make a fresh batch. 
It is so EASY TO MAKE.  RECIPE HEREUpdate:Some people say not to use baby oil so I would suggest trying another type oil.  We have since made it with cooking oil and it is still great.


Here are our supplies.  I bought flour on sale during Christmas and put it up for activities like this.  I am a cheap mommy:-)  The baby oil we have had since big brother was born and never used.


Mixing it up.


With little boys we must have the cars and trucks in almost everything we do:-)


You can mold this substance.  Can you see his rocks we made by his hands?

Another great sensory play substance.  The texture is fun and the smell is great:-)

Think he was building a mountain, by pushing the cloud dough up on the side of the bucket.

This is our other container of cloud dough with more toys. He had them both out!
You could use your imagination and play with cloud dough all different ways.
 We always have fun and make a mess when we play with our cloud dough!

We have played with this cloud dough in a separate activity and will share that with you soon:-)

Please do come and visit us again. We would love to have you back:-)

All kids are different and only you can decide how you let your kids play. Please keep this in mind with any post you read of mine!
