Many kids have written to us asking for recipes for “slimy, goopy stuff.” Here’s a recipe for Blue Goo. IMPORTANT: Blue Goo is to play with, not to eat.
1. Mix together 2 tablespoons of white glue and 2 tablespoons of water in a paper cup.
2. In another paper cup, mix together ten drops of blue food coloring, 1/4 cup of water, and 3/4 teaspoon of borax laundry detergent.
3. Add 2 tablespoons of the borax mixture to the glue mixture and stir well.
4. Have fun playing with your Blue Goo. Store it in an airtight container.
To avoid stains, be careful not to let blue goo touch furniture, carpet, or clothing.
DID YOU KNOW?
Blue Goo is a non-Newtonian fluid, which means it is neither a liquid nor a solid but has properties of both.
