3 tbsp. sugar
1/2 c. cornstarch
2 c. cold water
Food coloring
Dish detergent
Med. pot

Mix the sugar and cornstarch together in the pot. Then add the water and mix a little more. Ask your grown up to help you here. Cook over medium heat, stirring all the time. The mixture should start to boil, then thicken. Takes about 5 minutes. Remove from stove, cool and pour into plastic or paper cups. Be careful with the food coloring since it can stain, but add a little of it to each cup and then a drop of detergent. Stir.
