Gak (For Preschool)

"Gak is amazing. It's shiny like Silly Putty and makes great noise when the kids squeeze it. I got it from my kids' preschool teacher. I've never made it, so prep time is approximate. Utensils: Small and large mixing bowl, measuring cups and spoons and a tray."

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

Born and raised in Scotland, I'm an accidental ex-pat and now reside in south-west Montana. I've been in the States 20 years now. I have an amazing husband, three boys and a girl and 2 dogs. I love to cook and have become quite a bit of a foodie. I'm always on the lookout for a great, classically British recipe. I can't say I have a favourite cookbook, but I love to collect my own recipes in a huge 3" binder. I'll try anything once.
