Here’s another fun play recipe that you can make at home: two-ingredient gak! Gak is a fun alternative to slime — it’s thicker, squishier, and makes fun sounds when you press down into it. My kiddo loves it!
Two-Ingredient Gak
Here’s what you need to make two-ingredient gak:
- 1 bottle clear school glue
- 3/4 cup liquid starch
- Optional: food coloring
Add the glue to a bowl. If you want to color the gak, add a few drops of food coloring and mix it into the glue.
Slowly stir in the liquid starch, adding 1/4 cup at a time. You’ll need to use your hands to incorporate the liquid starch into the glue. It’s kind of like kneading bread — just keep working it until it’s fully incorporated.
Let it sit for a few minutes and it will acquire a smooth consistency. Then, it’s ready for play!
We had a lot of fun stretching out the gak. It’s really cool how it will melt back down into itself if you let it sit long enough.
