How to make Slime
I remember when we bought slime at the toy store and it came in a little garbage can and the new improved slime came with worms..YUM!
Nice project to do together
Details
What you need:
2 cups white glue (Elmer's or just white craft glue).
(Please make sure glue used is water soluble)
2 cups Water
Food colorings
1 tsp. Borax
In a bowl, mix the glue, 1 1/2 cups of the water and food coloring.
In a separate bowl, dissolve the borax in 1/2 cup of water.
Add to the glue mixture.
You will get a very thick clump of Slime where the two mix.
Now, get your hands in it!
With clean hands, knead the Slime to get it to mix.
This will take about 10 minutes or so, and is not very difficult as the Slime easily separates between your fingers.
For a more slimy texture, add a bit more water and knead it in.
Be careful, though...
VERY slimy Slime will get stuck in hair or any fabric it touches.
Please read warning on labels before using..
