Flubber!!!

School started this week and we still had some things to check off on our summer to-do list...Flubber being one of them. If you've never made this you HAVE to try it. Probably not meant for kids who still put things in their mouth since it contains Borax (found in the laundry detergent aisle near bleach) It's not messy at all and we just put them in Ziploc bags.





FLUBBER



Mixture 1: 3/4 cup warm water

1 cup Elmer's glue

food coloring



Mixture 2: 2 tsp Borax

1/2 cup warm water




Stir mixture 1 together in bowl, mixture 2 in another bowl. Make sure both are mixed well.
Pour mixture 1 (the colored one) into mixture 2. No need to stir, just reach in and pull out glob of flubber. Work it for 2-3 minutes then drain off excess liquid. FUN!!!

I made this with kids at a library program several years ago. They LOVED it! We called it slime :)
