Gabby LOVES playing with sand, especially kinetic sand! We found a video on YouTube and thought she
would love making her own kinetic sand.
Here’s what you need:
-1 cup of sand.
-1 &1/2 teaspoonful of corn starch.
-1 Tablespoonful of dish soap.
-a little water to get excess dish soap out of measuring spoon
-Food coloring of your choice. You will need many drops of food
coloring. Do not stop adding food
coloring until the color you want is reached.
We thought there would be color change overnight, but there was not.
Mix everything well.
Let sit overnight to dry out some so it is more like dry kinetic
sand. In our case, our sand was still a
little wet after sitting overnight, so we put it in the microwave for 30
seconds. The corn starch that we added
keeps the magic sand from drying out.
You can easily store this in a gallon plastic Ziploc bag like we did.
We hope you enjoyed our latest science experiment, DIY KINETIC Sand! CRAZY Sand! Fun & Easy, Super Soft & Squishy Science Experiment. We will see you again soon!
