making goo...



October 30, 2012 - I mentioned making goo and Charlie was so excited to make some for each of his classmates.  We made purple, blue and orange.  Charlie wasn't too sure about it at first but quickly realized how awesome goo is!  Philip pitched in where he was allowed.  :)  And, of course, his batch had to be purple.
Here's how to make goo...

Ingredients:



  • 8 oz (1 big bottle or 2 small) White glue
  • 1-1/2 cups Water
  • 1 teaspoon Borax

  • To Make:
    1. Pour glue into a bowl.

    2. Fill glue bottle with warm water and shake to get all the glue out of the bottle. Pour into bowl. Add food coloring if desired.

    3. Add 1 teaspoon Borax to 1/2 cup of warm water and stir.

    4. Pour Borax-water solution into bowl and mix. Long strings will immediately form. Continue to mix until smooth.

    5. Store in a zip-top bag or sealed container.
