LESSON 83

Oobleck fun & letter bingo day!
​

fun activity idea


​Oobleck Fun!
​
Picture

How to Make Oobleck:

Ingredients:
4 cups cornstarch
2 cups water
food coloring (optional)

If using food coloring, add it to the water first.  Then, add the water to the cornstarch.  Mix well.

Pour onto a shallow pan or similar and let your child explore this mysterious substance.

Oobleck isn't a liquid or a solid...but it behaves like both at times.

This simple, amazing sensory activity can keep kids entertained for a super long time.  And when your child is done...you can even cover it up and then use it again another day!
