In one bowl:

2 cups Elmer's Glue-All
1 1/2 cups water

A NOTE ABOUT ADDING COLOR!
If you want to use food coloring, you must add it to the water BEFORE you reach the 1 1/2 cup limit of water. A half-bottle of food coloring will produce a medium shade

In second bowl:

Mix 1 cup HOT water
3 teaspoons Borax

Stir until Borax dissolves

Pour Borax solution into the glue mixture. Stir. When it clumps on your spoon, it is ready to be kneaded. It will initially be "wet" as you knead it, then will become "dry" Flubber.

Merme - I made this last night with my little people (6 & 7's) it was a huge hit. Even the adult leaders were saying it was the coolest thing ever. I didn't have time (and didn't want the mess) to stir in a bowl so I dumped it all together in a gallon size zip lock bag, squeezed the air out, double bagged and everyone took turns kneading it. It came out great and was a good group project.
