Oobleck is amazing, just fyi. To make Oobleck, you need 2:1 ratio cornstarch:water. Cornstarch is fairly cheap and you can buy it in bulk. If this is your the first time making Oobleck, make it first and put it out in sensory bins or containers for the children to play with. If your kids have played with it before, give them each their own portion of cornstarch and water so they can mix and see what happens. Set out tool such as scoopers (or just spoons), little bowls, rollers, popsicle sticks, or whatever you think your group will gravitate towards. You can color the water with food dye before you mix the Oobleck-but, since the color focus this month is white, I would leave it to start. Oobleck could be done everyday and most small children will not get bored, so there will be plenty of chances to do this with color and many other fun ways.
