It's a rainy Tuesday here, a perfect day for Squishy Circuits! About a month ago, Tessa and I watched Super Awesome Sylvia and we've been excited since.
Over the weekend we stopped at RadioShack and bought our electronic gear and we also made sure we had all of the ingredients to make the dough. At RadioShack we bought:
- A battery pack
- LEDs
- A buzzer
- A motor
- And a bunch of batteries
Recipe for the Conducting Dough:
1 cup Water
1 1/2 cups Flour
1 1/2 cups Flour
(A gluten free version of this dough can be made by replacing the flour with gluten-free flour.)
1/4 cup Salt
3 Tbsp. Cream of Tartar*
1 Tbsp. Vegetable Oil
Food Coloring (optional)
1/4 cup Salt
3 Tbsp. Cream of Tartar*
1 Tbsp. Vegetable Oil
Food Coloring (optional)
Recipe for the insulating dough:
1 1/2 cup Flour
1/2 cup Sugar
3 Tbsp. Vegetable Oil
1/2 cup Deionized (or Distilled) Water
1/2 cup Sugar
3 Tbsp. Vegetable Oil
1/2 cup Deionized (or Distilled) Water
(Regular tap water can be used, but the resistance of the dough will be lower.)
Play!
