DK Publishing. 2001. 48 pages. Available at Sembach
Library (J 507.8 MAY).
I confess, I’m not one who often does cool activities with my kids,
but the picture on the cover of this book motivated me. The fact is,
you haven’t lived until you’ve played with cornstarch slime with kids!
This book gives the recipe (two cups cornstarch to one cup water) for that
and lots of other fun-looking, educational activities. As with all
DK products, the pictures are outstanding.
