Step-by-step tutorial

  • Step 1

    My daughter LOVES sensory play! Try this quirky-feeling cloud dough by adding one box of baking soda to a bowl. We added it to her designated sensory bin. You can make one too, out of a plastic container that has a tight-fitting or snapping lid.

    Next, pour in one packet of Kool-Aid drink mix. Any color and flavor will do -- pick your favorite! My daughter wanted pink lemonade!

  • Step 4

    Next, slowly add in some water and mix. Be careful not to add too much water or the cloud dough will be runny and too liquid. Add a little water at a time until it feels "mold-able".
