We are in full winter celebration mode! Winter can be cold, gray and seem to last forever. We like to keep it fun and exciting! If you’ve been following my blog for awhile then you know that I love hands-on activities. No matter the holiday or season, I am all about sensory play! I found inspiration for this Hot Chocolate Cloud Dough Sensory Bin online and knew we had to make it.
This sensory bin is so easy to make! We already had everything on hand too and it’s edible. Bonus!
