Oobleck Recipe

Here is the Oobleck recipe.  This is the one I use with the class.  On the sheet that is sent home with students, the recipe is cut in half.

Oobleck
1 1/2 cups of warm water
16 oz white school glue
Green food coloring

Mix the above in a large bowl


1 cup of warm water
3 teaspoons borax

Mix the above in a small bowl

Pour the small bowl into the big bowl and gently stir together.  Pour off any excess liquid.

I had enough for 22 large pieces. You can see the pieces the students are holding in the previous post. I have made the same recipe with 26 students. They just got smaller pieces. Hope that helps.
