All the homeschoolers from our church are in a program called book it. This is where the children have to read books and receive pizza awards for reading. Quin has participated in this program this entire school year. Today we finished one of our books called Horrible Harry and the Green Slime. I was of course asked the question " mom is that true?" to which I replied. "Of course it is" and then of course the next natural question "Can WE make some?" and before I knew what I was saying "I remember the recipe from my teaching days I guess we can." So for all those daring moms who let their children read the blog or all the brave moms out there. Here is the recipe.
1/2 cup of school glue
Cornstarch (as much as you think you need)
equal parts water
three drops of green food coloring
Stir until you think it "feels" right and play with it with your fingers as much as possible
This is lots of fun and cleans up easily with water.
P.S. If you try this do it while dad's at work because my husband was applaud by the mess. ( we usually clean it all up before daddy gets home.)
Tomorrow night for family night I'm going to try homemade corn dogs. That should prove to be interesting. I'll let you know.

Sounds like fun! How did the corn dogs come out?
