Goop
1. Pour in some of the cornstarch into a plastic container. Add a little water until the mixture is powdery. Add water or additional cornstarch to get the consistency you want. There are no exact amounts needed. If the cornstarch and water mixture is not the consistency you wanted just continue to add cornstarch or water until it is. You do not want it to be slimy.
2. Make different colors by dividing the goop mixture and add food coloring.

FLUBBER
Borate solution:
2/3 cup warm water
1 1/2 teaspoon powdered Borax
3 drops food coloring
Mix together in a 1 cup measuring cup using a wooden spoon
Glue Solution:
3/4 cup warm water
1 cup white school glue
Mix together in a mixing bowl using a wooden spoon
Pour the borate solution into the bowl with glue solution. Use your hands to gently lift and turn the mixture until only one tablespoon of liquid is left. Flubber will be sticky for a moment or two. After the excess liquid has dripped off, Flubber is ready. Store in a plastic bag in the refrigerator. When you are through, discard in a waste can. DO NOT try to wash it down the sink. If it dries on carpet or clothing, cover it with a cloth soaked in vinegar to de-gel it, then wash the area with detergent and water.
