Description

A fascinating non-Newtonian fluid made from cornstarch and water, ideal for sensory play and experimentation.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups of cornstarch
  • 1 cup of water
  • Food coloring (optional)
  • Mixing bowl
  • Spoon or whisk

Instructions

  1. Measure 2 cups of cornstarch and place it in a mixing bowl.
  2. Add 1 cup of water to the bowl.
  3. Use a spoon or whisk to combine the ingredients until the texture is uniform.
  4. Slowly knead the mixture; it should feel thick but flow like liquid when not under pressure.
  5. Add food coloring if desired and mix well until evenly distributed.

Notes

Adjust the cornstarch-to-water ratio for a thicker or more liquid Oobleck. Incorporate essential oils or glitter for added fun. Store leftovers in an airtight container, adding water if it dries out.
