Congo Camp 2010

Some of the slime made by our Congo Chemists.

Slime!  Today, the Congo Chemists created slime as they learned about how matter can mix together.

Creating the slime was simple, the campers mixed some water with borax and shook it up in a ziploc bag.  As the bag was shaken, the ingredients slowly started to thicken and then the food coloring was added. 

After it was finished, the campers each got to start playing with their gooey creation.  These chemists have definitely been getting their hands dirty as they make their way through learning about chemistry.
