The Toddler and I did some craft this morning but I didn't have any kid-friendly glue for our project. I remembered mum used to make a flour and water mixture and so gave it a go. It works surprisingly well - here's how.
1) Put about a tablespoon of flour into a jug;
2) Add a little bit of hot water (from the tap) at a time and keep stirring until you have a paste;
3) Add more hot water until you have about 3/4 of a cup of glue, the consistency is similar to what you'd do for making gravy, just runny but not too watery.
I've decided that I'll be saving money and reducing environmental damage by using this glue for all our simple projects. It works well and is truly non-toxic, so that makes us happy. : )
