Resources

You Will Need:-
- A Bowl
- A Wooden Spoon or spatula
- Plastic disposable cup for measuring
- Teaspoon
- Tablespoon

- 100ml PVA Glue
- Half a teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda
- One or two tablespoon of Contact Lens Solution
- Food colouring
- Optional: Glitter / Essential oil / Baby oil

Instructions

Method:-
#1 Measure 100ml PVA glue into a cup and tip into the large bowl.
#2 Measure half teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda and add to the bowl with colouring and mix till combined, Optional; Scent or glitter
#3 Next slowly mix a squirt or two Contact Lens Solution to the mixture. Stir the ingredients together, notice how the texture begins to change from runny to thick and gloopy.... you'll know when its done when the slim sticks to itself and not the bowl. If still sticky add more contact lens solution.
#4 There is no right or wrong consistency with slime… just have fun!

Have fun pulling, stretching, rolling and squeezing your gloopy flubber. Don’t forget to store your slime in an airtight tub or container once you have finished playing with it to keep it moist. Adding baby oil will stop it sticking to your skin.

Warnings! - Please note adult supervision is required at all times during this activity. Please ensure children only play with slime for limited periods of time due to skin irritation that may occur. Slime is not for consumption - please seek immediate medical attention if swallowed or ingested. Avoid contact with eyes. Wash hands thoroughly after every use.
