I am completely embarrassed to say that despite the fact that I’ve been a science teacher and homeschooled my kids…

….I’ve NEVER made this Oobleck Recipe until recently!

Wow…what have I been missing!

This is a super easy experiment and you probably already have all the ingredients on hand right now!

Oobleck Ingredients

Ingredients:

  • cornstarch
  • water

You want to mix the cornstarch and water until you get a mixture that is not a
paste and not watery.  It will be about 3/4 cup of cornstarch to 1/2 cup of
water.  You do not need to be exact.

What is so amazing is that this is a Non-Newtonian fluid…..when compressed
it turns into a solid.  When the pressure is released, it turns right back into a liquid!

oobleck solid or liquid

Translation….beaucoup fun!!

Oobleck Experiments

I must warn you though…it will get messy!
