DO try this at home!!!!

There may be people who read this that have done this before, maybe I am just behind, but I tried it and it was the coolest thing EVER!! Seriously! You take a box of cornstarch and put it in a big bowl and slowly add water until you have the weirdest consistency ever (I am serious when I say slowly, because I had it pretty close to perfect and then added water again and it was kinda runny, it was still neat, but needed to be thicker. I found something that says use a 10:1 ratio of water and cornstarch). It is like a solid when you are picking it up and then by the time you open your hand it is a liquid. If you punch it, it is a solid, but if you put your hand in slowly, it is a liquid. I made it and we played with it for about an hour! I am easily amused and this is cheap entertainment! I want to buy about 5 boxes and make a BIG batch of it!! Anyway, I definitely recommend anyone with kids to do this (or any of you who are just a big kid yourself)!! I would say it is better to play with it outside, it gets pretty messy! Does anyone know of any other experiments like this??
