When we were looking up some Science experiments to explore, Science Club were intrigued about a 'snot' experiment. Yuck! To make this gross experiment we needed gelatin, corn syrup, hot water and food colouring. We mixed it altogether and ended up with a rather sticky, disgusting substance as you can see below!
The science behind this experiment-yes there was science involved! - real life mucus is made of sugar and protein. Our fake 'snot' had sugar and protein in- just like in real life! The stringy bits are strands of protein!
