Slime is such a cool science activity and perfect for tactile sensory play at the same time. One of the things we love most about slime is how quick and easy it is to make once you learn how to make it and how easy it is to make up your own fun themes for holidays, seasons, and characters!

When you think of Halloween, what colors come to mind? Choose those for your own homemade Halloween slime recipe. Our favorite Halloween colors that come to mind are purple, oozing green, and of course orange.

Black food coloring would be fun too, and I have noticed that the supermarkets have black food coloring now! I always keep the regular food colors and the neon food colors kit handy for slime activities. We have also started using some new food coloring that comes in a wider variety of colors. See below.

Add your own colors and glitter to make the slime really come alive. You can use silver glitter or add matching color glitter to each of the slime colors.

Once you add in your slime activator, in this case saline solution, you want to give it a good whip. Borax slime and liquid starch slime come together almost immediately. However, saline slime, you want to give it a good mixing, but it will thicken quickly!

Once you notice the slime pulling away from the sides and bottom of the bowl and becomes harder and harder to stir, it’s time to knead.

TIP: Squirt a few drops of solution on your hands to easily pick up your slime as it may be sticky at first. Once you give the slime a good knead, it will become much less sticky!
