| Fruity Putty Materials: 0.3 ounce package of sugar free fruit flavored gelatin 2 cups flour 1 cup salt 4 tablespoons cream of tartar 2 cups boiling water 2 tablespoons cooking oil Directions: Mix the dry ingredients in a pan. Add the boiling water and cooking oil. Stir over medium-high heat until the mixture forms a ball. Place the ball on waxed paper to cool. Store in an airtight container. Cut the fruit picture from the gelatin box and paste to the lid. Use different flavors to make all different colors and smells. Gooo-Blek Materials: 1 cup of corn starch 1/4 to 1/3 cup of water bowl Directions: Pour the corn starch into the bowl. Add the water on top. Mix well until a thin mixture occurs. Let it sit until it gets solid. Even though it appears to be solid, the heat of your hand when you pick it up turns it to liquid! Goop Materials: 2 cups salt 1 cup water 1 cup corn starch Directions: Cook salt and ½ cup water for 4-5 minutes. Remove from heat. Add corn starch and ½ cup water. Return to heat. Stir until mixture thickens. Store in plastic bag. You can add food coloring if you want. Gunk Materials: 1 part Cornstarch 1 part Water Directions: Mix and color with food color or Tempera Paint Soap Slime Materials: Old Bits of Soap Bucket of Water Directions: Put the pieces of soap into the bucket of water and let it stand overnight. By the morning the soap has dissolved and leaves a thick slime. Looks good if green paint or food coloring is added to it. Ideas from Katie Baron via WAGGGS-L email list. |
