Silly Putty
Need:
1 part liquid starch, 1 part Elmer's white glue, food coloring (optional),
bowl
Instructions:
Mix glue and starch together until it feels like a putty. If desired, add
food coloring and mix thoroughly.
When not in use, Silly Putty may be stored in an airtight container.
Be sure to use Elmer's White Glue, NOT Elmer's "Washable" or "School
Glue." Otherwise, you'll just get Gak!
Putty
Need:
1 tablespoon liquid starch, 1 tablespoon white glue, bowl
Instructions:
Put liquid starch into a bowl. Add the white glue. Fold the starch over
the glob of glue until it's not sticky.
Press the mixture between your hands and pull it apart just as you would
salt-water taffy. It bounces and stretches!
Stretchy
Putty
( Be very careful and real all warning labels when handling Borax or
Borax-based solutions. Use caution when making "Stretchy.” Also make sure
small children don't put these or
any other mixtures into their mouths.)
Need:
4 ounces white glue, 1 1/2 cups water, 1 teaspoon Borax powder, food
coloring, bowl
Instructions:
Mix glue, 1/2 cup of the water and 10 drops of food coloring in small
bowl. Combine borax and a cup of water in medium bowl. Gently pour glue mix
into the
borax
and stir until well mixed. Scoop the Stretchy out of the water and knead
until dry enough to play with. Store in sealed container for several weeks.
Stretchy is great for pulling apart. Stretchy also dries out quickly with
a lot of handling.
