Materials
- 1 cup of flour (soft and powdery)
- 1 cup of water (clear and refreshing)
- 1 cup of cornstarch (light and airy)
- 2 tablespoons of food coloring (bring vibrance to your balls)
- 1 tablespoon of baking soda (to enhance the bounce)
- Mixing bowl (smooth and easy to handle)
- Spoon or whisk (gentle tools for stirring)
- Plastic wrap or wax paper (for keeping things tidy)
- Baking sheet (simple surface for resting the balls)
Instructions
- Start by placing the flour, water, cornstarch, and baking soda into your mixing bowl. Let the familiar scent of flour fill the air as you begin.
- Stir the mixture slowly using your spoon or whisk. Pay attention to the way it combines, feeling the smoothness as the ingredients blend together.
- Once combined, add in your food coloring. Mix until the colors dance together, creating vibrant swirls in your mixture.
- Now, scoop out small portions of the mixture and gently roll them into balls. Enjoy the soft texture against your palms as you shape them.
- Place the balls onto your baking sheet, lined with plastic wrap or wax paper. Here, they can rest comfortably, awaiting their transformation.
- Allow the balls to dry for 24 hours. During this time, notice how the colors deepen and the texture changes.
- After drying, give your bounce balls a gentle test. Drop one from a low height and enjoy the soft bounce as it springs back up.
