Some call it "Gak," a recipe for strechy, slimey goo that kids love to play with. Click on this green sentence for the link to the recipe (Kinder art calls it "Glurch" but it's the same thing).
What can Children learn from this? Well, it's another one of those fabulous activities that promote self competence and team building skills.
It's also a (non-edible) cooking project. Though we did not make this batch today, making Gak is a good way to teach children measurement, and transitional changes that take place when things are mixed together and become something all together different, i.e. mixing cake ingredients together to make a wet mixture, baking and discovering a "dry" cake.
Very valueable science concepts.
