Here is a great activity that was provided by the after school coordinator at Parksdale Village. This fun activity is definitely one to try if you haven't already. And if you did already ... why not again!
GOOP AND SLIME RECIPES FOR KIDS
1) HOMEMADE HARD GOOP RECIPE FOR KIDS
Take a cup of
cornstarch add to a bowl…
Take a cup of baking soda add it to the bowl…
Take 1/2 cup of water and add it to the bowl…
Mix with your hands-they will get messy a bit and the “Liquid but Not” will
harden– then soften –then drip while you form and play with it.
It comes off with a little soap and water!
NOTE: ‘Liquid but Not’ and ‘Slimish Goop’ are very similar. The first is more
firm/hard. The second is similar to mucous as it goes through
the fingers and hands. It’s ‘slimier’ — as the title denotes. ( For either activity, add drops of water as needed–to keep the consistency as
desired. You’ll find that for any of these ‘experiments’ adjustments will be
needed–which is O.K. It’s science!!! Be sure to remind kids that this is what
it’s all about…experimenting to see ‘what’ happens!
