Recipe for slime

This recipe for slime is bound to be a great party hit and you can colour it to match the party decor.

Ingredients:

Directions:
In a large bowl mix together the glue, 6 tablespoons of water and your chosen food coloring until it is all dissolved.

Taking a smaller separate bowl, dissolve 1 teaspoon of the borax with 1 tablespoon of water. Then add this to your glue mixture. This should produce a nice glunky slimey mix! Take the clump of slime out of the glue mixture and put aside in a separate bowl.

Now repeat the process by making another batch of the borax solution and again add this to your remaining glue mixture. Repeat this process until all the glue mixture is used up (usually about 3-4 times).

With clean hands, knead the slime rather like kneading bread dough, for about 10 minutes.

If the slime feels a bit thick, just knead in a few drops of water. The more water you add the slimier it gets.

Place in an airtight container and don't let the kids eat it!

This recipe for slime should not stick to furniture or clothing but if it does wipe imediatley with a damp cloth and some detergent. If it has already dried, cover the area with a cloth soaked in vinegar in order to de-gel it and then wash the area with a little water and detergent.

Do not throw the mixture down the sink but discard in your rubbish bin.
