Slime for Kids


Silver Post Medal for All Time! 390 Posts

Winter is coming up too fast. This is a great thing for kids to do when stuck inside! I have also done it for Halloween parties.

Supplies:

water

food coloring
1 tsp borax
white school glue, like Elmer's

Steps:

Mix the borax with one cup of water. Now you have to stir until it is all dissolved.
In another bowl, mix 4 ounces of glue (1/2 cup) with 1/2 cup water. Add food coloring, mix it well.
Then mix the 2 bowls together. Mix with a spoon then use your hands. It is fine if there is a little bit of colored water left in the bowl. Just dump it out.
Now you have slime, or Flubber if they watched that movie recently! Keep in a zip lock bag in refrigerator.

Hi. I'm quite sure I saw a news post about Borax being toxic to kids. You may want to check. I was disappointed when I saw that.
