The harder you press them, the firmer they feel, but when you leave them alonethey drip. When mixing cornstarch in water, you will find this to be SO true. However, if you add enough water, you win. ;>So what fun will t. Great activities! Kirsten Gilbert Krenicky Quick and easy activities that have easy-to-find ingredients. BONUS! many of these activities dovetail nicely with the requirements for the Girl Scout Brownie Home Scientist badge.. Great book for science projects This was a great book with lots of ideas about easy science products made with every day home products. This book was very clear and easy to understand
