All-Natural Slime

September 26, 2023

What is it with kids and anything slime related? They justlove it! And this one is no exception to the rule. In fact, it’s even better because it only requires TWO ingredients! Also, no gross chemicals— this is all-natural slime! It has more of a flubber texture and is so fun to play with. Because there is no glue in it, it’s water soluble so isn’t a mess to clean up. It really is the perfect, easy school holiday activity!
