Poppy Snot Slime

If your kids love Trolls and slime, they are going to go wild for this easy to make and visually appealing Poppy Snot Slime!


We love hands on activities, and we love all things Trolls! This Poppy Snot Slime is so easy to make and it is so much fun to play with. It has so much stretch to it that it is hard to resist stretching it thin and peeking through the clear slime!


Ingredients:

Clear Elmer’s School Glue
Water
Chunky Confetti Style Glitter (I got mine at Target in the dollar spot)


Poppy Slime Directions:

Mix water and clear glue.
Add as much pink chunky glitter as you desire!
Slowly begin adding liquid starch, add about 1/4 cup to start with.
Right away your slime will begin to pull away from the sides of the container you are mixing in.
Keep stirring until you have a blob of slime that has no liquid.
Dribble just a drop of starch on your hands. Now begin kneading the slime until it is no longer stringy.


This was my first time using starch to make slime and I was super impressed. It was easy enough for the kids to handle and it was so much fun for all of us! Hands on science is irresistible when it involves slime.

Glow in the Dark Galaxy Slime


My kids have been begging to make slime for a while now. I finally caved and made a really pretty glow in the dark galaxy slime. This was easy and fun to make. My kids loved it in the daytime, and at night too!



























We loved this slime because it can technically be made with stuff you already have. I happened to have glow in the dark powder at home, so I added it. Use whatever glitter or confetti you have to make this easy slime.

Supplies:
1 cup of cornstarch
3/4 cup of water
A craft stick



Directions:

Mix the glow in the dark powder with the cornstarch.



Slowly add the water to the blue cornstarch.



Add a generous amount of extra fine black glitter and silver star confetti.



Begin to mix the slime with the craft stick.




As it begins to clump together begin kneading by hand.



Your slime is ready when it is dry to touch but squishy!




If your slime is too runny add a pinch more cornstarch.




This will glow in the dark if left to 'charge' in the sun. You can also use a black light to really bring out the glow in the dark properties.
