I came across this Tutorial
On How To Make Your Own Bouncy Ball
Now…
What child and even adult : ) wouldn’t want to make their very own…
Bouncy Ball…
We followed the instructions…
Using 2tbs of warm water and 1/2tsp borax powder
the children each chose the colors of their balls
In a separate cup they added…
1tbs glue
1 Tbs Cornstarch
On top of your Tbs of glue with 1/2 tsp of your Borax Solution and food coloring…
Don’t stir and allow to sit for 10-15 seconds
Begin stirring it until you can’t anymore….Then take it out of the cup and begin to kneed and form into a ball
It will be sticky at first and then begin to solidify
WELL…
Are Bouncy Balls didn’t bounce…
So I am not sure if we did something wrong
But even with that…
You would have thought we had just made a NEW discovery…
The Children are STILL even NOW enjoying their NEW…
Bounceless Balls…
Sometimes it is the simple things that bring us such GREAT joy…

Your tutorial pics are so cute! I saw this recepi before and wanted to try it with my boy but he doesn't like to get his hands sticky! He didn't like finger paint, play doh or anything like that!
