What I Did: My boys were really excited about this! They love playing scientist and they love bouncy balls. We gathered our supplies and we thought we followed the instructions to a T. What we ended up with was a stringy goopy mess!

Next Time I Will: I think the water was too cold and we didn’t give the cornstarch time to fully dissolve. Also, we were using a 1 1/2 TBSP measuring spoon(which I didn’t even know we possessed!) for the water so I’m pretty sure we had too much. I think we could give it another try and get it right next time!

    “Followed the directions to a T” - except the parts where you didn’t.

    ^^^ Notice how it says “We THOUGHT we followed the directions to a T?” She clearly outlined the things she did wrong. Don’t be rude.
