When it was too hot to be outside, we took an almost 2 hour break to make a little Gak...my kids all time favorite craft. And yes, I left my kids without shirts...it was just easier that way!
The simple recipe:
1 part Elmer's Glue (we used 1/4 cup)
1 part liquid starch (we used 1/4 cup)
food coloring
Bowl to stir it in
Zip Lock bag to keep it in
Mix and stir!
For a four and two-year-old you can't imagine something more fun to them. Their Gak became airplanes, triangles, snakes and trees. They smashed it, rolled it up and bounced it on the table. I do warn though, don't let them put in their hair or try to stick it to their clothes...boy will it stick!
