keep the “littles” busy with cloud dough :: recipe

With all of the “big kids” back in school now, how do you go about keeping the “littles” busy so you can get a few things done around the house? Cloud dough! This awesome recipe is sure to keep your toddler content long enough for you to vacuum the living room (you may even have time to get the kitchen straightened up too!!). My son will play with this for about 30 minutes uninterrupted. I will say, he tends to make a mess, but when used outside… who cares!! 🙂

Usually when I make this, even I can’t resist the amazing feel of this dough and end up playing for a while too!!

    Oh man, I have done this before and forgot about it. I am going to have to do it with my grandsons now. So happy to see this as a reminder and now I have it right here in my hands too.

    Thanks for sharing this recipe! I need to keep the kids busy on rainy days, but only at the kitchen table.

    My kids love the sand. We had to add extra oil so they can form shapes, they love how soft it feels!
