Sensory Play -- Snow Dough

We made snow dough yesterday. It was such a wonderful sensory experience and very easy to make. Here is the recipe:

4 cups of flour
1/2 cup of baby oil (we used lavender scented oil)

This dough has a soft, silky smooth texture and it filled the room with the sweetest smell. The lavender scent we used was also very relaxing.

We made our snow dough in a bowl and then transferred it into a bin and onto Eve's tray. The dough molded very easily -- perfect for making snowballs and snowmen!

Eve loved this sensory play experience. In the picture above Eve is using sign language to sign the word "snow." Eve kept signing snow while playing with the dough!

Jack and Eve couldn't wait to play with the snow dough once Grace arrived home from school that morning. Grace loved the snow just as much as Jack and Eve too!
