This Web site houses an archive of classroom activities from Seasons 1 through 4 of the CBS television show "NUMB3RS."
Whether you call it slime, flubber, oobleck, goo, goop, gak, gunk, ooze, putty, or play dough, we are talking about gooey, homemade polymers that can provide both hours of fun and an introduction to chemistry.
Despite the title, I don't think we're talking crafts for babies here, but rather toddlers and preschoolers.
Anne Marie Helmenstine, Ph.D. is About.com's chemistry guide. But you don't need a Ph.D. to follow her recipes for a bouncing polymer ball, electroactive slime, fake snot (eww!), Metamucil flubber, or glow-in-the-dark slime.
Non-Newtonian fluids sometimes behave like liquids and sometimes like solids, thereby defying easy categorization.
Normally I visit Cooks.com for dinner recipes, so I was pleasantly surprised to find that they also house dozens of recipes for slime, silly putty, goop, and play dough.
The Slime we made is just a demonstration of how certain polymers are effected by other chemicals, such as 'cross-linkers' .
