December Science Project – Oobleck!
December 5, 2022
WARNING: Make sure to do the following project with an adult for extra precaution.
To Make Oobleck, you will need:
- One cup of water
- 1 ½ to 2 cups of corn starch
- A few drops of food coloring (optional, but fun!)
- A spoon
- A bowl
Instructions:
- Put your water into a bowl.
- Begin adding the corn starch to the bowl with water in it.
- Use your spoon and begin mixing the water and corn starch together as you add the corn starch.
- As you get closer to adding all of the 1 ½ cups of corn starch, begin to mix slower and with your hands.
- You might need to adjust the amount of water and/or corn starch. The goal is to have a consistency where the mixture is a liquid, yet also a solid.
- When the oobleck is the consistency you would like, add some food coloring!
- Now it’s time to start playing with your oobleck! Have fun and start exploring your oobleck!
