Bartholomew & the Oobleck

During Dr.Seuss Week, we read several Dr. Seuss books. One of the books we read was Bartholomew and the Oobleck.  The book was about a king that was bored of the 4 major seasons and wanted something "new" to fall from the sky. The king called upon his magicians and asked for something  new and their town received Oobleck. We learned the importance of telling the truth and taking ownership for our actions. At the end of the book, we did a fun experiment and made Oobleck ourselves.



You can make Oobleck at home!
All you need is:
-Cornstarch
-Water
-Food Coloring
- A Mixing Bowl

Directions:
Mix 1 cup of cornstarch and 1/2 cup of water.  It should be the consistency of syrup.  Add food coloring if you choose.
