Step 1:听Sit your baby on the floor and make sure his hands are cleaned and dry so he can play with the dough. You might want to do this activity on a tiled, laminated or hardwood floor for easy cleanup.听

Step 2:听Place the tray or container with the baby dough in front of him and proceed to play with it. You may introduce the activity to him by saying something like this:听

鈥淛oey, we are going to have so much fun playing with this baby dough鈥疘 made! Look what I am doing. I can make shapes with it. I can trace it with my finger and I can taste it! You can play with it too.鈥澨

Step 3:听Help your baby play with the baby dough by placing his hand in the mix and encouraging him to explore it. Describe what he is doing, feeling, tasting and touching. Once he signals that he is done, remove the tray and clean up. The baby dough can be stored in an airtight container and placed in the refrigerator for a week. To make it more pliable, simply knead it with your hands to warm it up.听
