Another Silly Putty Recipe!

I came across another recipe to make our own Silly Putty, so of course, we had to try it out.
Of the 2 Recipes we tried, we liked this one the best. This one is less sticky and gooey than the other recipe. This silly putty definitely resembles traditional Silly Putty more that the other recipe-- it even bounces a little. This recipe makes a small individual amount, so each of my kids made their own batch.
 
 
All you need is:
1 Tablespoon Elmer's Glue (white school glue)
1/2 Teaspoon Epsom Salts
1/2 Teaspoon Water


Mix the salts with the water.  Add the glue and mix well.
 

 Remove the putty and pour out any remaining liquid.
Have fun!
Store in a Ziploc bag to preserve.

Make Your Own Silly Putty!

We had so much fun making our own Silly Putty today and even more fun playing with it! With just two ingredients, it couldn't be easier to make!

 
All you need is Elmer's Glue (white school glue) and liquid starch.
 
 
You can make as much or as little as you want, mix 1 part of each in a disposable cup till it forms a putty. Take the putty out of the cup and dispose of the liquid.


 You can store it in a Ziploc bag to preserve it.

*This Silly Putty is a bit sticky and it resembles more of a solid/very thick slime.
