Flubber is a rubbery substance that kids love to play with. My grandson would play with this stuff for long periods of time. In his preschool classroom they had stations that the children could work at. This was the most popular station.
Solution A: 1 1/2 C. Warm Water 2 c. Elmers Glue Food Coloring Solution B: 4 tsp. Borax 1 1/3 C. Warm water Mix solution A in one bowl, mix solution B in another bowl. Dissolve both well. Then just pour solution A into solution B, DO NOT MIX OR STIR! Just lift out flubber. Store in baggies. If you half the recipe, you only need to half the solution A and it will work the same.

Wow, and I thought Flubber was just a movie.
I guess you learn something new every day.
Thanks for the tip.

we could not use this at our preschool as the borax is considered toxic. We would mix liqid laundry starch and white glue together and get something similar.
