Slime Instructions

  1. Mix glue and food coloring together.
  2. Mix in a few pinches of baking soda.
  3. Mix in contact solution, starting with just a little bit. If your slime is too sticky, add another small amount. The more you add, the thicker it will be. The less you add, the slimier/stickier it will be.
  4. When you can no longer stir, kneed it with your hands until it is no longer sticky. Add any desired mix-ins.
