Home Made Flubber

Robin Williams has nothing on this Flubber! My son wanted to have a game theme for his birthday. We made homemade flubber and gave it away as favors. Games 2 U provided the video games and hamster ball for the day. What a blast these 9 year olds had. Games 2 U can be found at Games 2 U and is well worth the money!

It's easy to make flubber, and the list of ingredients is brief: 

3 cups warm water
2 cups white glue, such as Elmer's Glue-All
2 tsp Borax, such as 20 Mule Team Borax
Two containers

To make flubber: 

Combine 1 and 1/3 cup warm water with 2 tsp of Borax in a small container, and stir until the Borax powder is fully dissolved. In the second, larger container, thoroughly mix 1 and 1/2 cops warm water with 2 cups white glue. Also add the optional liquid watercolors and glitter in the larger container. Next, pour the Borax mixture into the glue mixture, and use your hands -- or your kids' hands -- to completely combine them, lifting and turning the glob of flubber.
