how to make a pet blob


this is Herc's pet blob BOB.  we made this easy, silly project using only 3 ingredients plus googly eyes.

Materials: White school glue like Elmers.
                Borax, can be purchased at any grocery store or Target
                Food Coloring
                 2 medium bowls and water
                Googly eyes
How to:

             1.  Mix 1/3 c. warm water with 1/2 c. glue. (that is one regular sized glue bottle.) Add a few drops of food coloring, stir and set aside.
       
             2.  In another bowl add 3/4 c. warm water and 2 tsp. Borax.  Mix well until diluted. Pour mixture into bowl one and combine.

            3.  Stir together until glob forms. (there will be liquid in bowl, that is fine) Remove blob from bowl and kneed with hands for 2-3 minutes.

Now add some googly eyes and there is your pet blob! Store in air tight jar or plastic baggy.
