Hannah Thormsild
Making slime at home is a fun and easy activity! Here are a few popular methods to create slime:
Prep Time 5 minutes mins
Total Time 10 minutes mins
- 1 bottle (about 4-6 o) of white school glue
- 1/2 teaspoon 1/2 baking soda
- 1 1 tablespoon contact lens solution (must contain boric acid)
- Food coloring (optional)Glitter
Pour the Glue: Empty the entire bottle of glue into a mixing bowl.
Add Baking Soda: Mix in the baking soda. This helps to firm up the slime.
Add Food Coloring: If you want colored slime, add a few drops of food coloring and mix well.
Add Contact Lens Solution: Slowly add the contact lens solution while stirring. The mixture will start to come together and form slime.
Knead the Slime: Once the mixture starts to come together, use your hands to knead the slime. It might be sticky at first, but keep kneading until it becomes less sticky and more stretchy.
Add Glitter (Optional): If you want sparkly slime, knead in some glitter
