My daughter's teacher made this in her pre-school class. She used mineral oil or baby oil instead of water. It stayed wet, even in a bin sitting outside in the California sun. When I made it at home I added a couple drops of ti tree oil to kill some germs.

if you want to color this, you have to do it before you add the oil, otherwise it won't absorb.
