Cloud Dough

I found this fun recipe for Cloud Dough from Juggling with Kids. It has two simple ingredients and it creates an interesting texture.

The original recipe calls for 8 cups of flour and 1 cup of baby oil. I cut this in half.

- 4 cups of flour

- 1/2 cup of baby oil



I had to mix it with my hands for a few minutes and add a some more baby oil to get it to a good sticky consistency.

We used a vinyl table cloth on the floor to help contain the mess. The children had lots of fun playing with it. I did notice that as the children were playing their hands were absorbing some of the baby oil causing it to dry out a little and you can imagine what a mess dry flour can make. This was definitely a fun but messy activity.
