Preparation:

1: Prepare Your Mixing Space

1. Lay down a mat, tray, or table covering — Cloud Dough is easy to clean but can get messy during mixing!
2. Have a large mixing bowl ready.

2: Combine the Ingredients

1. Pour 2 cups cornstarch into the bowl.
2. Gradually add 1 cup conditioner to the cornstarch.
3. Mix with a spoon at first, then use your hands to knead the dough together.

3: Knead Until Soft & Fluffy

1. Continue kneading for about 3–5 minutes.
2. The dough will feel crumbly at first — keep working it until it transforms into a smooth, pliable texture.
3. If the dough is too dry, add a small amount of conditioner (1 tbsp at a time).
4. If too sticky, add extra cornstarch.

4: Add Colour & Scent (Optional)

1. If desired, divide the dough into sections for multiple colours.
2. Add a few drops of food colouring to each section and knead until evenly coloured.
3. Add a few drops of essential oil for a calming, sensory scent.

5: Add Fun Textures (Optional)

1. Mix in glitter, mini beads, or sprinkles for extra visual stimulation and fun texture.
2. Knead gently to distribute throughout.
