How to Make Oobleck (Goop) - Easy 2 Ingredient Recipe DIY
Oobleck is a fascinating non-Newtonian fluid that provides endless fun for kids (and adults alike)! It’s simple to make and requires just two ingredients you probably already have at home. Here’s how to create your very own Oobleck!
Ingredients:
- Cornflour (cornstarch)
- Water
Instructions:
-
Combine Ingredients: Start by measuring out 1 cup of cornflour and placing it into a mixing bowl. Gradually add about half a cup of water to the cornflour.
-
Mix Together: Stir the mixture with your hands or a spoon until it becomes thick and well combined. You may need to adjust the consistency by adding a bit more cornflour or water; the desired texture should feel both solid and liquid at the same time.
-
Playtime: Once you've achieved the right consistency, it’s time to explore! You can punch it, let it flow through your fingers, or even try to roll it into a ball when squeezed. Just remember, Oobleck behaves differently depending on how you interact with it!
- Storage: After you've finished playing, store your Oobleck in an airtight container. It can last for a few days, but be sure to check its condition before playtime.
Enjoy mixing and experimenting with this magical material—Oobleck is guaranteed to provide hours of sensory fun!
