FIREWORK SLIME RECIPE

Tips:

Try making the slime ahead of time to get familiar with the process and make any tweaks that work best for your space and group.
Baby wipes are great to have on hand to make the clean up easier.

Supplies:

1 bottle of clear Elmer’s glue (6 oz)
½ tsp baking soda
1½ tbsp contact lens solution (must contain boric acid)
Red, silver, and blue glitter
Optional: Star-shaped confetti or food coloring
Optional: Baby wipes (for cleaning hands)

Instructions:

Pour the glue into a mixing bowl.
Add the baking soda and stir.
Mix in your glitter and/or confetti to make it sparkle like fireworks.
Add the contact solution and stir until it starts to come together.
Knead the slime with your hands – it should become less sticky the more you knead.
Store in zip-top bags or small containers for kids to take home.

Enjoy the game!
