The other morning, Luke wanted to 'do a craft'. So I was trying to think of something that we've never done before. And I remember making "oobleck" when I taught first grade, and knew Luke would love it!
Oobleck is a mixture of cornstarch and water. It goes along with a Dr. Suess book about Ooblecks, and what's really neat about it is that it's both a solid and a liquid. It looks like a liquid and pours like a liquid, but when you touch it, it's hard. It's the strangest thing ever! If you've never made it, you must! I had just as much fun playing with it as Luke!
Luke loves helping pour and stir things in the kitchen so this was perfect for him! There was a little bit more mess, but that's okay!
We played with the oobleck for a good 30 minutes which is a really long time for a two year old boy!
