Can silly putty be made with cornstarch?

In: Food & Cooking, Toys [Edit categories]

Answer:

I'm not sure about that, but you can make a similar goo with cornflower and water, you mix equal amounts of each together in a bowl (if its not thick enough add more cornflower) and it is so fun to play with, it is hard when you try to punch it but if you slowly pick some up it will run through your fingers
