So on to making the slime. Before you start, make sure you put away all the toys and other activities. Slime can get a little messy, and you don’t want it to spread.

Most of the ingredients for slime are commonly found in your home, but the secret ingredient to this recipe is contact lens solution. Make sure you get the kind that has boric acid because that’s what helps keep your slime together.

What you do to make Christmas slime:

Start by preparing all your materials to ensure a fast and smooth creation of your slime.

Pour glue onto a large bowl. To empty the bottle, pour some water into it and shake. Add the remaining glue to the bowl then stir.

Get your baking soda, glitter, and contact lens solution then add it to the large bowl. Mix thoroughly with every ingredient added. It is better to separately create each color.

Christmas Slime Recipe

With just a few simple ingredients, children can create their own stretchy, squishy slime in festive colors. Not only does this activity engage their senses and provide a fun tactile experience, but it also introduces them to basic chemistry concepts like polymers and the reaction between glue and borax.

Materials

½ cup of Warm Water
1 tsp. of Baking Soda
2 (6oz) bottles of Clear Elmer’s Glue
3 tbsp. of Contact Lens Solution ** Make sure the contact lens solution contains boric acid! **
1 ½ tbsp. Glitter, each, in red & green
Small Toys or Foil Confetti (optional)

Instructions

Empty one 6oz bottle of glue into a large bowl.
Fill the empty glue bottle approximately ⅓ full of warm water. It will be about ¼ cup of water.
Shake the bottle to combine the remaining glue with the water. (Fun step for the kids!)
Pour water into the bowl with the glue, and stir to combine.
Add ½ TSP of baking soda to the glue & water, and stir to mix thoroughly.
Stir in one color of glitter into the glue mixture.
Add 1 ½ TBSP of the contact lens solution to the glue mix, and stir well.
Once the slime forms a soft ball in the bowl, remove it from the bowl, leaving any excess liquid to remain behind. The slime will be sticky!
Play with the slime and knead it as you would bread dough, to work it all together. The slime is ready when it’s no longer sticky.
That's it! Let the kids have fun with the slime. Repeat if you'd prefer another color (or as many colors as you may like!)

Notes

For best practice, create each color of slime separately. Follow the same instructions for each color.

Regular glue will require less contact lens solution than glitter glue. Add the solution slowly, mixing between additions. Only add enough solution to bring the glue together into a soft /ball.

Store in an airtight container, in the fridge, when not using it.
