The kids and I made this today. Initially, I though to myself “what am I thinking this is just going to be a gigantic mess”. Haha but we plowed on. It didnt feel like it was going to work. But it did.
Cloud dough experiments.
Tip: the mixture was initially super flakey. Keep kneading it as if you were making bread. It will form into a doughy like ball eventually.
Next- I added a few drips of food colouring. This also felt like it was a bust. But it worked eventually with continued kneading. However, I did inadverently get dye on my skin.
Cellphone upload.
For next time- I might try to add the food colouring before I form the dough.
Overall, we had a fun time making the cloud dough. Played with it a few different times today. I would recommend this activity for other parents trying to keep their littles preoccupied with activities.
I believe in bucket-filling (a little twist on the bucket list). I want a platform to share my artform(s) that already fill my bucket. I have the degree(s). I survived the young child rearing years. I've landed the leadership dream job. It's time to fill my bucket. Focus on what lights my fire. Rebranding this blog (yet again) to meet me where I am at in this journey called life. I will share my creative writing. I will share my photography. I will share my thoughts on this crazy journey we call life. I like to keep it real. I refuse to live up to "the image". I don't use filters. What you see (read) is what you get. I hope you enjoy the read and I will try to balance what I share in a meaningful way. Ultimately, I keep this blog for me. You (my imagined audience) are an awesome bonus!
