Start sculpting with salt dough. Salt dough is a fun, easy-to-make recipe that can be formed, molded, cut and dried to make all sorts of figures. To make it you'll need:

  • 1 cup salt;
  • ¾ to 1 cup water.

Just mix salt and flour.
Gradually add water and mix together, until you have a good “doughy” consistency.
If it gets too watery add salt, then flour, until you have a firm dough ball.
If you wish, you can even add some food coloring or fruit/vegetable juice instead.
When the dough is ready, give your little one a small piece if it. Show the baby how to squish the dough with one or both hands, flatten it, make holes with fingers, tear into pieces, etc.
