I remember Gak from back when Nickelodeon sold it when I was a kid. Fun stuff! And I'm pretty sure I made this "recipe" in elementary school, but it never occurred to me that it might be the same concept behind the commercial stuff. Neat!

GAK....means something very different in the UK.

Dr. Seuss also has a Gak. In, One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish. The kids play Ring the Gak!

At the Introduce a Girl to Engineering Day, it was called Ooblek as well, but they pitched it as a non-Newtonian liquid. I had to explain to a few kids what that meant, I don't think the presenters were doing a fair representation.

I've found that children make quite enough of their own foul semi-fluids.

I used to make this when I worked in childcare and I give you this warning: Keep track of this stuff. I once lost a batch behind a shelf and it went bad. Badly bad. What the HOLY HELL is that STENCH bad.

Also, it is nearly impossible to get out of clothes.

Sheesh, I'm a buzzkill today. Pay no attention to the grumpy lady!
