Slime

Great fun for Halloween or anytime!

Ingredients:
1/2 cup white glue
6 Tbsp. water
Food coloring
1-4 tsp. Borax
1-4 Tbsp. water

Directions:
Mix the glue, 6 tablespoons water and food coloring until it is dissolved.

In a separate bowl, dissolve 1 teaspoon borax into 1 tablespoon water. Add to the glue solution. You will get a very thick clump of slime when the two mix. Pull the clump of slime out of the glue mixture and put it in a separate bowl.

Mix another batch of the borax solution and add to the remaining glue mixture. Repeat until all the glue mixture is used (about 3-4 times).

With clean hands, knead the slime to mix. This will take about 10 minutes and is not very difficult as the slime easily separates between your fingers.

If a looser, more slimy texture is desired knead in a bit more water. The more water you add, the slimier it gets.

The slime doesn't leave a residue and doesn't get stuck on anything.

Store in an airtight container. This can easily be doubled, tripled or quadrupled.
