The cloud dough was amazing and way better than the marshmallow dough we made last week. And it’s so easy to make!
1 Cup Frosting
Corn starch (add until you get the right texture)
2 Cups Confectioners sugar
I let Sofie sit on the counter for this taste-safe activity — which I think I regret in the end! It was super messy before the ingredients were mixed and we ended up with sticky frosting all over the counter.
Here we go with the frosting! After measuring out the sugar and dumping it in the bow, we started to scoop out the frosting. I had no idea how the sugar was going to make the frosting less sticky, but I figured I’d give it a shot. I have to say, I shriek at the mess these toddler sensory activities make. But I read so many good things about this recipe.
Once everything was mixed together and kneaded completely, it started to get really fun! This cloud dough was amazing, so soft and moldable. And the more cornstarch you add, the more cloudy and soft it feels.
Of course she had to try it! Luckily this dough is completely taste safe, so I wasn’t too worried. But there is always a fear of the sugar high, so I did encourage her to spit it out. Especially since she was taking such HUGE bites!
This dough was so easy to roll out and mold and cut with a cookie cutter. It would be so great for molding into different shapes. We used it to make little ice cream cones. It was so much fun!
