Manic Monday: Liquid BUT Not!

Week #2: Liquid BUT Not!

Instructions can be found here.

You will need: cornstarch, baking soda, water (optional: food coloring)

 
This stuff is so fun, but so messy. You might want to make it an outdoor activity.  Once it's all made up, play around with the interesting properties! If you punch the "dough" it's hard, but if you gently place your hand in the bowl, it's a thick liquid. You can scoop it up into your hand , it's hard to begin with, then it will ooze through your fingers.

We made this a few weeks ago and have kept it in a plastic container. It separates, but all you need to do is stir it around with a big spoon till the water re-incorporates. We usually add a little more water if the mixture is too dry.

Get messy! Enjoy!
