      Hi Nicky

      I’m afraid that I’ve stolen this from Google

      What you will need:
      Mixture 1 3 cups of warm water
      1 cup of PVA glue
      food colouring or a few drops of ready mix paint

      Mixture 2
      2 level teaspoons of Borax
      half a cup of warm water

      How to make itP:
      Put the ingredients for mixture 1 into a large bowl (or deep tray in which the flubber can be played with) stir well
      Put the ingredients for mixture 2 into a bowl and stir well

      Pour mixture 2 into mixture 1
      Mix together with your hands, the flubber will start to form immediately.
      Move the flubber around in the bowl with your hands until all the water has disappeared.
      Its ready to explore!!

      Hope that helps!

      What is flubber? Do you mean the green goo from the film?

      He he, I love flubber. Being a chemist, I love making stuff like this.

      It’s dead easy to do, if it’s the stuff I think you mean. Get a load of cornflour and add water to it until it makes a runny paste. Add food colouring to give it a bit of extra pizazz!

      If you’ve got a loudspeaker in your house then put some flubber on a plate and rest it on the loud speaker. You’ll be amazed at what happens next!

      🙂
