Description
This fun video explains how to make a batch of oobleck (or slime) and why this special substance is known as a "non-newtonian" fluid. Watch as Mr. O and kids from the Children's Museum of Houston explore the scientific concepts of matter, viscosity, and molecular structure. Use this video to introduce these concepts and then make some slime of your own. This is a great activity to do during Halloween.
