SUPPLIES NEEDED FOR THIS PUMPKIN SPICE SLIME RECIPE
- 1 (6 ounce) bottles Elmer’s Glue
- About ½ cup warm water
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 tablespoon contact lens solution (containing boric acid), for each batch
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin spice seasoning blend
- Orange food coloring
DIRECTIONS FOR THIS SIMPLE PUMPKIN SPICE SLIME
Empty the glue into a large bowl.
Fill the empty glue bottle about ⅓ full with warm water (about ¼ cup) and seal with the lid. Shake well to combine the remaining glue with the water. Pour into a bowl with glue and stir to combine.
Add the baking soda to the glue and stir to mix thoroughly.
If you are adding additional glitter, food coloring, scents, or confetti, stir into the glue mixture before adding the contact lens solution.
Add contact lens solution to the glue mixture and stir well. (Note: regular glue will require less contact lens solution than glitter glue. Add the contact lens solution slowly, mixing between additions, and add only enough to bring the glue together into a soft ball.)
Remove the slime from the bowl. The slime will be sticky. Begin to play with the slime, stretching or kneading it as you would bread dough, to bring the slime together. The slime is ready when it is no longer sticky.
Best if stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator when not in use. The kids love making this pumpkin pie slime recipe! Empty the glue into a large bowl.
