Troubleshooting:
- Is your slime too sticky? Add a little more starch and knead.
- Is your slime too rubbery? OOPS! You added too much starch. No biggie. Just add a little glue to your slime and knead it in!
Tips & Storage:
- Store your slime in an airtight container, and it can be used again & again!
- The glowing paint the we use in our activities can be purchased on Amazon here.
- Liquid starch can be hard to find in stores. We get ours online here.
- For the best effect I recommend using a blacklight for this activity. You can use these flashlights or a blacklight fixture. My kids love using the flashlights!
