Slime

 

• 2 cups white glue (washable like Elmers)
• 1 1/2 cups water
• food coloring of choice (a few drops)
• 1 tsp borax
• 1/2 cup water

Mix the glue, 1 1/2 cups water and food color until it's not sticky.  Separately dissolve the borax and 1/2 cup water.  Add to the glue solution.  You will get a very thick clump of slime where the two mix.  Now you must work in the rest of the solution.  With clean hands, knead the slime to get it to mix.  This will take about a minute or so, and is not very difficult, as the slime easily separates between your fingers.  

If you desire a looser, more slimy texture, add a bit more water and knead it in.  The more slimy this is, though, the more apt it is to get stuck in any fabric it comes in contact with.

**My kids have pulled this throughout the house and as long as you pick it off of clothing or carpeting quickly and gently, it will do no harm.  Keep in a zip lock bag or tupperware.**
