It’s Tuesday, March 13, 2018, and time for Science at ClickSchooling!
Recommended Website:
Age Range: All (All grades; children with parental supervision)
One of the most significant ways to introduce kids to science is through experiments that involve mixing things to create something new, exciting, odd, strange, weird and fun!
There are no bells and whistles at this website, just a simple archive of over 100 recipes for concoctions like slime, play dough, silly putty, and more. NOTE: Not all of the links work, but there are enough recipes to keep your children busy.
When you get to the site, you’ll see a menu of recipes divided into categories that include:
- Dough’s – Get recipes for play doughs made from flour, coffee, cornmeal, oatmeal, peanut butter, and more!
- Clay, Goo & other Compounds – Make chocolate clay, clean mud, and the popular non-Newtonian solid using cornstarch and water. Make clay from dryer lint and Kool-Aid, make GAK (using borax and Elmer’s glue), get recipes for sand clay, silly putty, and slime!
- Papier-mâché – Use dryer lint, strips of paper, and pastes of all textures to create imaginative designs.
- Paints, Dyes, and Crayons – Learn to make your soapy finger paint, and pudding paint. You’ll even find instructions for coloring rice and pasta.
- Bubbles, Chalk, Stamps, Make-up – Get recipes for all kinds of bubble solutions, make sidewalk chalk, and create your fruit-flavored stamps.
- Art, Activities, Gifts – Make salt sculptures, preserve flowers, make ornaments and bath salts.
Click on anyone to get the instructions. Then, your kids can mix potions (just like real chemists!) and make fun substances that they can use for open-ended play or use in arts and crafts projects.
I would like to remind you inside this post are my affiliate links and if you click on the links and make a purchase that I will receive points which I can turn into items to use in our classroom.
Thank you,
