Cloud Dough...

I love having lazy days here and there when we have nowhere to go, and we can just hang out and play at home all morning long.  So this week I decided to spend our time making homemade "cloud dough" with the girls while Mason was at school.  It was really easy--only 3 ingredients--food color, cornstarch, and hair conditioner.  This gave it a very silky and soft texture.
 I thought this might entertain the girls for 30 minutes at most, but we ended up playing with it for nearly an hour and a half, and even then I had to force them to put it away because I needed to clean up to make lunch.
 We played "restaurant", and two of us would order food while the other would make the food with the dough.  It looks pretty tidy here, but believe me, after all was said and done, the table was covered with it, it was all over the chairs, and under the table all over the floor.
Loving this time with my girls!
