I still remember the first time I played with “gak” when I was a kid. I was instantly in love and played with it for HOURS! If you are not familiar with gak, it is simply cornstarch and water… a budget friendly safe, non toxic way for your kids to have fun. It is a liquid and a solid all at the same time. When you move your can quickly thru it you can literally break a piece off… when you move your hand slowly it is liquid.
To make a batch just add 1/2 water to 1 cup corn starch in a bowl… and have some fun!
My kids made some with their friend the other day and they could not stop giggling. It is a pretty quick way to be the “Fun Mom” so give it a try! Easy clean up as well.. or better yet send them outside with it!
If you kids like science fun, and you are looking for activities to do with kids here a few books worth looking at!
