Samantha, from Canada and living in Dubai, sent in this great Milky Way Ooblek idea. Let’s take a look at it…
What did you do?
We went all out with our messy play. We made different colour ooblek slime, made pineapple scented bubbles, water beads, glitter and went crazy! They had such a fun time mixing all the different parts together and doing all the scooping and transferring!
I don’t do measurements when making ooblek. I just add water to the cornstarch until it’s a consistency that we like. To make the different shades, we simply just added less/more blue food colouring to the separate bowls and the poured it all in one at at time!
That it kept them so occupied! Even the youngest (1.8months) sat with this activity for a whole hour!
