Flubber! Great sensory idea!

This is a great, easy and cheap recipe! Its a WONDERFUL sensory tool too!

1 1/3 cups warm water
3 teaspoons borax
Stir together well

1 1/2 cups warm water
2 cups glue (about 2 large bottles)
food coloring (if wanted)
mix together well

Poor the borax and water over the glue mixture
(Get ready to get sticky! lol)
Let it sit about 20 seconds then carefully flip it over
it will be semi solid and very sticky, continue to flip until only about 1 tb of water is left and the outside is less sticky and holding together.
lift out mass and allow excess water to drip off

Flubber!

The more you play with it the more "solid" it gets, let it sit on your hand and it turns more "liquid" VERY fun! Once it is made its not very messy and easy to clean off surfaces.

As you play with it and roll it, it becomes more solid. I stored mine in ziploc bags.
