Science Experiments

Posted on May 18, 2016 by Ashlie Cashin

We had a lot of fun doing science today!! We learned how to make Elephant Toothpaste, Made a Balloon blow up on its own, watched baggies explode, and made FlUbBeR!!

Here are the ingredients and instructions for Elephant Toothpaste

The kids got to take a little sample of the flubber they made. I gave them instructions not to play with it on carpet in their house. But instead play with it outside!! It is NOT edible. Here is the recipe and instructions in case you/they want to create this at home.

Flubber Recipe
Mixture 1
1 1/2 cups of warm water
2 cups Elmer’s Glue
Food coloring

Mixture 2
3 tsp. Borax
1 Cup Warm Water

Stir mixture 1 together in a bowl
Stir mixture 2 together in a separate bowl.
Make sure both are mixed well.
Pour mixture 1 into mixture 2, stir together
You now have FLuBeR!

O Outside Lesson

The kids got one piece of a puzzle to color, then they had to piece it together using teamwork. They didn’t have any idea what the picture would turn out to be. They did a great job working together!
