19. Scented Lavender Bath Dough
Combine the soothing benefits of aromatherapy with the tactile joy of playdough by making scented lavender bath dough. This soft, moldable dough is made from cornstarch, hair conditioner, and a few drops of lavender essential oil and purple coloring. Kids can knead, roll, and shape the dough right in the dry tub or on a bath tray, breathing in the calming lavender scent which is perfect for winding down before bed.
When introduced to water, the dough slowly dissolves, creating a soft, milky, and beautifully scented bath. It is an amazing double-duty craft that offers a relaxing sensory play experience before seamlessly transitioning into a calming, skin-softening bath.
