HOW TO MAKE SLIME! GREAT HANDS ON SCIENCE FUN!

At our last homeschool group park play date we had a company come out that does Science fun with kids. The kids had a chance to make SLIME!

Even my 2 year old participated! What great fun! Interested in making some?

Materials needed:

1 teaspoon Borax
2 cups water
2 cups white glue
Food coloring
Bowls

Here are the instructions:
Dissolve Borax in 1/2 cup of water. Stir the mixture and then set it aside.
Mix 2 cups of white glue with 1 1/2 cups water in another bowl. Add food coloring, if desired. Kids seem to like a nice lime green color, which resembles snot.
Pour the Borax solution into the glue mixture. Mix together until a thick gelatin is formed.
Knead the slime for about 5 minutes. The more it is kneaded, the drier and less sticky it becomes.
Store the slime in a plastic baggie or container, otherwise it will mold.
