Oobleck

Ahhh atlass a homemade recipe that works in our house for Oobleck {flubber, goop, puddy, etc!!} Made this for the kids at the day care quite frequently, and since being home, have been looking for the right recipe to recreate it for my kids! So without further adeau here is the recipe that I found!

To make your own mix 2 cups of cornstarch and 1 cup water in a bowl. If you want to color your oobleck like we did, add a few drops of food coloring to the water before adding to the cornstarch. It took some effort to mix the water and cornstarch. Try it out (hit it with your fist and pour it off a spoon to see if it works) before you give into the urge to add more water to make it easier to mix. When the kids weren't playing with it I covered it with plastic wrap.

takes on the form of liquid when lightly touched or played with...

but give it a hard hit or touch, and it firms up!
Too Cool! Really, you must give it a try!

Remember these images, and repices are not mine from scratch, I got them from: http://www.skiptomylou.org/2007/03/02/oh-the-places-you-will-go/
