Slime
I recently tried this recipe for slime with the children I nanny. The two year olds LOVED the texture. Check it out.
Supplies:
White glue (clear glitter glue would be awesome too!)
Water
Borax
Food Coloring
2 Bowls
Measuring spoons
Steps:
Mix together 2 teaspoons of borax with 8 tablespoons of water until dissolved
Put 2 Tablespoons of glue in bowl and add 2 tablespoons water and stir.
Add food coloring to glue
Take 2 Tablespoons of the borax water solution mix into glue solution.
Keep stirring and it should begin to thicken.
Squeeze it in the bowl with your fingers and knead it so that the food dye will have a better effect.
There will be excess water in the bowl-just dump it out and start playing with your slime!
You can use play-doh toys or kid-safe kitchen utensils as well.
