Making “flubber” is, in my opinion, one of the funnest (and simplest!) projects to do with kids. And this time of year when school supplies go on sale for CHEAP, it’s a good excuse to stock-up on glue to make this gooey stuff year-round.
Supplies: 1 cup white glue, 2 tsp. Borax, food coloring, warm water
Pour glue in a bowl.
Add 3/4 cup warm water and food coloring (to your liking!), and stir.
In another bowl, mix 2 tsp. Borax (find this in the laundry section) and 1/2 cup warm water. Add this mixture to the glue mixture. Then, watch the mixtures glob together. Reach in, pull out globs, and work it with your hands until all is combined.
