Today we made Oobleck for the letter Oo. Aidman decided he didn't want to participate, so we didn't make him. Laneybug and Lyssy made it by themselves. 
They wanted purple so they mixed blue and red food coloring together.
I LOVED that Lyssy called it "Gooey Gooey".
They had a really good time playing with it. Again Aidman didn't even touch it, don't know why.
Here's the recipe.
In a small bowl mix 3/4 cup water and 1 cup glue (2- 4 oz bottles)- add food coloring if you want it colored. In a larger bowl mix 1 teaspoon 20 mule team borax (got it at Wal-mart) and 1/2 cup hot water. Pour the glue into the borax solution and let it sit for a few minutes. Stir together- the more you mix the water will absorb- we used our hands once most of the water was gone just to get a good consistency. Pour off any remaining water and enjoy!!
