网站分类详尽，索引方便，它分成如下几小类：艺术，科学，户外，感觉，废物利用，婴儿相关的活动，学前孩子的活动…. 博文里收集了很多面向儿童的艺术项目，而且重过程轻作品，主旨是让孩子完成开放性的，探索性的，实验性的活动，以儿童实现自己的想法为导向，而非以完成作品为目标。所以博文里纪录的作

品可能不是很好看，但是却是真实的儿童通过材料来表达的属于他们自己的想法。仔细阅读这些博文，不仅可以开拓家长思路学习儿童活动的创意方法，还可以摸索一些如何陪伴孩子的策略。

下面转一个我挺喜欢的感官（SENSORY）活动，昨天晚上也跟女儿实践了一下，女儿两岁半，可以自己一个人玩一个小时左右，期间我又可以做自己的事情。工作中的孩子是最可爱滴~~

配方很简单，面粉+植物油，比例是 8份面粉：1份植物油。如果喜欢香味，可以在植物油中加入纯天然精油，让孩子的味觉也得到享受。我昨天加入了一些葡萄柚精油，味道很清新了。

PLAY DOUGH PLAY WITH CLOUD DOUGH

Cloud Dough, have you heard of it?

Me either, and I thought I’ve heard of most everything arts+little kids related. Karen at Flight of Whimsyintroduced me to the recipe, and as soon as I learned about it I knew my 3 year old would love it. The consistency of the dough is lovely to feel and hold. It can be powdery like flour one moment, and then moldable like damp sand the next. This brought HOURS of fun to my home, and maybe it’ll do the same for yours… for yours…

We started off with 4 cups of Flour and 1/2 cup of Oil. The original recipe is an 8:1 ratio. I would have enjoyed having the full 8 cups worth, but I didn’t want to deplete my flour reserves, just in case.

Don’t worry about writing all this down. There’s a printable recipe at the end of this post!a printable recipe at the end of this post!

N took the mountain-making and oil mixing job very seriously. We mixed it with our hands for about 5 minutes until the dough held together when we squeezed it. We could still see some oil lumps in the dough, but it didn’t have an adverse effect on the material. The original recipe called for baby oil, but canola worked beautifully for us. However, Karen did mention the lovely smell of the baby oil, so we added a healthy dose of lavender oil drops (found at our health food store) to scent the dough. Heavenly!

I find it fascinating to sit back and observe how my kids explore new-to-them materials. The first thing N made was a wall. A really strong wall.

Then she crafted the dough into a bakery and soup cafe. These silicone molds are wondrous for activities like this.

The next day we brought it back out and shared the dough with some friends. And this is where I wished I had made the full 8-cup recipe. Hoarders!! There was so much scrambling for all the dough scraps, and I found myself patrolling more than I like to. So, if you’re making a batch for more than one child, 8 cups of flour + 1 cup of oil may be the way to go.

Cloud Dough

Author: Rachelle
Recipe type: Dough + Sensory

The consistency of this dough is lovely to feel and hold. It can be powdery like flour one moment, and then moldable like damp sand the next. This brought HOURS of fun to my home, and maybe it’ll do the same for yours…
Ingredients

8 cups flour
1 cup vegetable oil
Essential oil such as lavender or grapefruit (optional)

Instructions

Scoop and pour the flour into the center of a large tub.
Create a crater in the middle of the flour.
Pour the oil into the crater.
Gently mix it all together.
Enjoy mixing and learning about the properties of the dough as it is, or add small silicone bowls, spoons, or measuring cups to make small structures, hills, or pretend cupcakes.

Notes
The original recipe is an 8:1 ratio and we started off with half the recipe (4 cups of Flour and cup of oil) because I didn’t want to deplete my flour reserves, just in case. Turns out that this was such a hit and a full batch would have been equally wonderful, especially after our neighborhood friends wanted to come over and play with us.
