Active Time15 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 5oz. bottle of glow in the dark glue
  • ½ tbsp. Baking soda
  • 1 tbsp. Contact solution
  • Glow in the dark stars

Instructions

  • Pour the glue into the mixing bowl.
  • Add the baking soda and stir well until combined.
  • Pour in the contact solution and stir until slime becomes stretchy. (Note: Your slime will feel sticky at first and it will seem like there’s too much contact solution. However, keep kneading the slime and it will get to the desired consistency! I did not have to add any extra solution to this recipe.)
  • Once the slime is at the desired consistency, it’s ready!
  • Use a plastic mat for play time. Add the glow in the dark stars to the slime.
  • Find a dark room or closet to see the slime and stars glow in the dark!
  • Store the slime in an airtight container or a jar.

Notes

Go Slowly with Activator: Start small and go very slowly with the activator. Adding too much at once can make the slime too stiff.
Take your time to mix each ingredient well. This helps to achieve a smooth and even texture for the slime.
Before making slime, it's good to have a wet washcloth or rag available to clean up any spills immediately.
