I came home from the food co-op with extra cornstarch today- oops! Anything fun I can make with it to play with a 2.5 year old?

Thanks!

Goo is always fun. Just add water to the cornstarch until it is liquid, but forms a solid when you pick it up and roll it quickly in a ball (it will look solid/dry and then "melt" right away)...you may have to play with how much water to add to make it suitable for your 2.5 yr old. Its a really neat texture for kids to play with. You can also put some food coloring in for fun

add a little cornstarch and food coloring to liquid soap and you get fun bath paints that are easy to clean off the walls.

My dd is that age and she loves it.
