Fact: All kids like to make mess.

Fact: All kids like goo, slime and gunge.

Make your own play-safe Kiddie Gunge

You will need;

Custard (ready-made is fine)
Food colouring (Green + any other colours you have)
A few plastic bowls and spoons

1. Pour custard into a large bowl and add green food colouring – this is the basis for your goo.

2. Sit on a waterproof sheet and let your child mix, play with, taste, smell, and make a mess with the ‘goo’

Tips

* For extra slimey goo add some green or yellow jelly

* Add jelly snakes and worms to make a bug infested bog

* Provide straws so that they can blow realisitic bubbles in the bog

* Another take on this game is to provide 3 or 4 different pots of custard + other ingredients (choc chips, hundreds and thousands, fruit pieces, marshmallows) and let them ‘cook’ up a delight for you – go with the fruit if you’re on a diet – you’ll be tasting plenty
