Slime

I don't know any kid that doesn't love to play with slime so today that is what I will tell you how to make. Making the slime wont take long ; it takes about 5 minutes. Make sure that as you are going step by step to have the kid/kids help so that they are not just waiting for you to make it but they are also helping. I have listed all the materials and steps below........so get ready and have fun.

Materials 

2 bowls

spoon

Borax (can be purchased in most stores that sell laundry detergent and will be in that isle)

Water (warm tap)

White school glue (like Elmer’s)

(Food coloring if wanted)

 

There are two components to slime. There is a borax and water solution(in one bowl) and then a glue, water, and food coloring solution. Prepare them separately.

 

-Mix 1teaspoon borax into 1-cup water until the borax is completely dissolved. (This is mixed in one bowl.)

-Mix ½ cup glue into ½ cup water until the glue and water combine and it looks milky… add food coloring if you want to. (This is mixed in a separate bowl.)

-Mix the borax mix into the glue mix…stir with spoon but when it becomes too sticky; start kneading it. There will be excess water that is not needed and that’s fine.

So congrats you have made slime now you can let the kid/kids have fun...you can give them scissors and cookie cutters to use with the slime.

Come again to see what other great kid crafts there are.
