Homemade Goop
Fun to play with, but messy!
Homemade Goop Recipe
1/2 cup white household glue
1/2 cup water
nontoxic poster paint
1/2 cup water
3/4 tsp borax
- Combine first three ingredients and mix well. In a separate bowl, mix the water and borax. Slowly stir the borax solution into the glue mixture for instant goop!
Caution: keep the kids at a table covered with newspapers and don’t let this get on the floor or furniture–a few garbage bags on the floors are a good thing, just in case ;).

Homemade play dough
1 cup flour
1/2 cup salt
1 cup water
2 T oil
2 T cream of tartar
food coloring drops
Mix flour, salt and oil, and slowly add the water. Cook over medium heat, stirring until dough becomes stiff. Turn out onto wax paper and let cool. Knead the dough with your hands until of proper consistency. Use as is, or divide into balls and add a few drops of the food coloring to tint it.
This keeps for weeks in plastic zip top bags.
