The green slime turned out perfect after it was mixed well. But this is what it looks like mid mixing. Next came the red, and Christmas Red food coloring is much more aggressive than leaf green as you can see. My husband is in awe of my hands and since the solution didn't work and I ended up with a large rubber ball, I had to goto Target with hot pink hands and buy more glue.
After all was said and done I ended up with some very nice gifts for the kids in Coopers class. Yes, I'm that mom that sends slime for a gift. HA HA!

We make this in school and to make it less messy we let the kids knead the goop inside a plastic baggy. Works very well!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun idea! Thanks so much for yet another fabulous giftable creation. I'll be linking.
ReplyDeleteWe made some the other night too...rubber ball! :-( Any ideas on what went wrong???
ReplyDeleteMy mom and Steve said that they saw you at Target with your pink hands. I told mom I got to see them too on your blog lol
ReplyDeleteHi Aimee! You visited my blog today so I was just stopping in to check you out. I like what I see here. I think its important for kids to make gifts rather than buy them. I also know that they deserve freedom from prejudice/discrimination. I'm urging you and your readers to teach cultural diversity at an early age so that all of our kids can live comfortably in their own skin as adults.
