Making GAK has been on my list of "crafty crap to do with the kids" and we finally did it. Gak does NOT disappoint. In fact, gak is awesome. The ingredients include borax, elmers glue, water, and food coloring. That's it. Gage wasn't too sure about it as he mixed up this gross looking concoction. But after a minute if formed a globby mass in the middle of the liquid that we lifted out and rolled into a ball.
Voila...GAK!
This stuff is awesome. You can stretch it all kinds of ways. If you hold it up high, it just slowly stretches toward the floor. Then, you just gather it up again and it comes back together into a wad of gak.
Seriously, gak ranks up there with stuff that we would pay money for. I cannot believe we made this cool stuff in 2 minutes. Huge success! They played with it for days.
