making oobleck

 Since Heidi had to miss all of her fun Dr. Seuss activities, Savanna thought it would be fun to make the "oobleck" she had made at school and I thought that was an excellent idea.  It did help Heidi cheer up for a little while and all three of them had fun.  The funniest part was that I let them each pick what color they wanted and Savanna pretty much dumped an entire bottle of food coloring in hers.  Her hands looked like green gloves the entire day.  We were all just laughing and laughing every time we saw her.  She thought it was pretty much the greatest thing that ever happened to her.  It mostly came off after a good soak in the tub that night but Friday morning when we took Heidi to the doctor she said, "Good thing the green is gone because Dr. Kelley would think something really wrong was happening to my body."  We laughed at laughed.  She is one hysterical little girl!
