GOOP

(this is a repost from the very beginnings of our blog, almost 2 years ago!! This is what we will be doing today!)

Logan brought home his planner from school today and slammed it down on the kitchen counter and said "Mom, I have been dying to make this all day!" I turned to look at him and he had all the ingredients out and ready to go....how could I say no. It was the coolest thing ever and perfect for the Halloween spirit!

Ingredients:

2 Cups Cornstarch

food coloring

1 cup water

Put cornstarch in bowl, add food coloring, and slowly add water to cornstarch while mixing with hands. HAVE FUN!!!!

Quick and Fun Experiment

This was super cool and a super easy "I am Bored" solution. I just filled a baggie half full of water and we each guessed how many pencils we could poke through before it broke. It took 11 and my guess was 10. Way fun and it entertained my 2nd grader for quite awhile.
