An Ooblek Note: This recipe can be very messy, but loads of fun. Wear old clothes and cover the surface you are working on. 1) Put a cup of cornstarch in a bowl. Slowly stir in small amounts of water until the mixture is thick like syrup. Add a few drops of food coloring, if you choose. 2) Squeeze the gooey mixture between your fingers. What happens? Can you shape it into a ball? Hold the ball on your flat palm. Watch what happens. What happens when you pour the mixture into another container? Facts About Oobleck: It is a solid and liquid at the same time. If you make it into a ball, it looses shape when you throw it in the air. It can be placed in a container, but will not take on the shape of the container when removed. When you leave it in the sun, it looses its color, becomes hard on top and mushy on the bottom. It does not bounce. It is not edible!
