Homemade Slime

Today we made slime! It was very simple and kept Asher entertained for awhile. It was a great sensory activity. I let him use cookie cutters, rolling pin, and different containers and cups to play with his slime.

What I loved about this slime is that while Asher was playing on the kitchen floor with this, there was NO MESS. The food coloring stayed in the slime and not on my floor. Easy clean up! The slime stayed together nicely!

To Make Slime:
1 4oz white Elmer's school glue
1 TBSP baking soda
1TBSP contact solution
Food coloring.

To start empty the bottle of Elmer's glue in a bowl. Add the baking soda and mix. Next add a few drops of food coloring and mix. Last add the contact solution and mix. If slime is not forming and the mixture is still sticky add more contact solution until desired consistency.
