Silly putty recipe!

 

Today I will teach you a recipe for silly putty!

Silly putty is a classic goo that has been around for years.

You can find a small history about it here. (pretty interesting)

You can find the original silly putty here at Hobby Lobby.  (love this place!)

...or...

You can make your own!

You are going to need: Borax, Water, food coloring, and glue.

1. Mix together a even ratio of both cold water and glue. (I used clear glue, but you can also use white.) And if you can see by the pictures on all my GOO posts, I don't use Elmer's glue.  I went frugal and bought $0.50 bottles. It's cheap but has the same effect.
2. At this point, go ahead and add in one or two drops of your food coloring. (if you are using colored 'Glitter glue' you do not have to add food coloring.

 

(All right to this picture go to Elmer's.com)

     3.  Now in a separate bowl, mix the borax and hot water together until the borax dissolves.

     4.  Pour the borax mixture into the glue substance.

     5.  The glue should coagulate.

     6.  Pour off the extra water and move the "silly putty" around in your hands for a while to mix everything together.

     7.  You can store silly putty in a plastic baggie, or in recycled plastic eggs from that Easter egg hunt a year ago!

Have fun!
Be silly!
And enjoy!

 




**CAUTION: this "silly putty" recipe does contain borax.  Borax as I understand is not at all harmful when touched or used in a recipe like this.  However, you should not consume borax or this recipe, or get it in your eyes.
For further concerns, I highly recommend you to do your own research...All I am saying is to just use it responsibly.  Like with any goo recipes, wash your hand afterwards**


Recipe::

• 1 part cold water (I used 1/3 c.)
• 1 part glue (I used 1/3 c.)
• food coloring (optional)
• 1 cup hot water 
• 1 teaspoon borax

Glow in the dark slime recipe

   

It's GOO time!

Today, I will teach you how to make glow in the dark slime, A sticky substance that glows-in-the-dark! 

How fun is that.

  You are going to need food coloring, glue, water, borax, and a bottle of glow-in-the-dark-paint. *Ask a parent for help*

1. Mix together your glue and cold water in a medium sized bowl.
2. Mix together your hot water and borax in a different and smaller bowl until the borax dissolves.
3. To make this slime glow in the dark, add around half a bottle of glow in the dark paint to your glue mixture, along with one or two drops of food coloring.
4. (I used two drops of green food coloring, and Anita's all-purpose glow craft paint.  You can find the paint and any other craft supplies on your list at my favorite place in the whole wide world: Hobby Lobby!)  Anita's glow paint is non-toxic too!
5. Once you have added the coloring and mixed well, pour your borax mixture into your glue mixture. 
6. A "magical" thing should happen when you do this.  Mix well until everything is a large clump and drain off the excess water.  You can mold the slime in your hands until it is good enough to give to your child.

Hold a flashlight up to your slime and head to a dark room!
Have fun slimeN' guys!


**Use borax and this goo responsibly.  Do not ingest.  Read label on borax before use**

Recipe:

• 1/3 cup non-toxic glue
• 2/3 cup cold water
• Glow in the dark paint
• Half a cup of hot water
• 2 1/2 teaspoons of borax
• food coloring
