PRINTABLE SLIME RECIPES FOR KIDS
Slime is a ton of fun to make, and it is definitely not as difficult as you might think! We have tested our recipes dozens of times. Just make sure to follow the recipes closely and use the same ingredients. Not all glue is created the same!
We also have a handy list of alternative slime recipes that include fiber slimes, candy slimes, and other variations of slimes that are chemical free. Slime is also terrific tactile sensory play for kids who love a real hands on experience.
It’s such a unique texture, and we have quite a few uniquely textured slimes like our homemade floam slime!

I love your site! I just made the Crystal slime with my granddaughter. She loved it. I did change one ingredient. I used Elmer’s classic glitter glue. It worked beautifully! Thanks again for all of your ideas making science fun for kids and adults!
I have tried to make this slime 3 different ways now and it just stays liquid. Can you please tell me exactly what brand and type of glue you’re using? I’ve tried Elmer’s washable clear glue as well as Elmer’s white school glue. I’ve also tried saline and liquid starch thinking that maybe I’m just using something wrong! What liquid starch or saline do you use as well? All 3 ways have not worked!
Hmm…. If you would like to email me at [email protected] , I would be able to help you better!
