Moon sand
Be the first to rate it
Flour mixed with baby oil in a big storage tub. Holds its shape like wet sand for hours of play.
What You’ll Need
- Flour (14 cups)
- Baby Oil (20oz)
- Container (a long under-the-bed plastic tote)
Equipment
- mixing bowl
Directions
- Mix the flour and baby oil together in the container.
- Exact amounts are not needed; use about 12-14 cups of flour and a whole bottle of baby oil.
- For a smaller batch, use a smaller container.
Notes
Swap it out every month. Take off rings before playing (flour cakes into them). Mixing food coloring into the oil before adding it to the flour works well.
Safety: NOT edible. Same cautions as cloud dough: raw flour and baby oil (aspiration risk if swallowed). Supervise; not for babies or toddlers who mouth things.
