Ooblick - Crazy Sludge

What You Will Need

1 cup cornstarch
1 cup baking soda
3/4 cup water
a few drops of food colouring
a mixing bowl



Instructions

1. Dump the cornstarch and baking soda in a bowl. Mix well.

2. Pour the drops of food colouring into the water.


3. Slowly pour the water mixture into the dry mixture.



4. Mix with your hands. At first the Ooblick will be crumbly until well mixed.

Additional Details

Ooblick is crazy stuff. It acts like a liquid (it will pour and splatter) and a solid (it will shatter, crack, crumble) at the same time.

The ooblick doesn't last long, maybe an hour before it looses it properties, so have your fun immediately!

Wait for the mess to dry for easy clean up.
