To continue our celebration of Dr. Seuss this week, today we read "The Foot Book" & "Fox In Socks." Part of "Fox In Socks" mentions "New goo. Blue goo. Gooey. Gooey. Blue goo. New goo. Gluey. Gluey." So, we made some Blue goo of our own! I hear that some have already been asking their mom to get the "recipe" ;) so, here it is: equal parts white school glue and liquid starch (found in the laundry aisle, most commonly under the name "Sta-Flo"). That's all there is to it, unless you want to add in some food coloring like we did. Just mix them together with your hands until they are fully combined. It will go through a stringy stage right before it is done -- just keep mixing! :) Ours was a little heavy on the glue this time, so was pretty sticky, but lots of fun!
We also really explored our feet today, as we took off all of the silly socks we wore for the day to paint with our feet! We have done this activity before, and it was fun to see how it evolved this time, since the kids were more familiar with it. We got to see what our footprints looked like when we walked, danced, and even jumped!
