How to Make Oozy, Gooey, Gloppy, Gooky, Gunky Slime

Understandably, this slime was a big hit at our most recent Community Art Sunday. Endlessly malleable, slime is oozy, gooey, gloppy, gooky, gunky, stretchy, and FUN to play with. Pull it out when you need to fidget, brain storm, or just dig your hands into something slimy.

If you missed this activity at the event, don’t fret! We’ve included a step-by-step guide on how to make your own slime below. Get creative with it, if you so choose, by experimenting with color, size, or even glitter!

STEP ONE

Pour a glob of glue in a bowl, keeping in mind that the amount of glue you pour will be the amount of slime you make.

STEP TWO

Mix in a dab of food coloring. The hue is your preference! Go solid or mix and match to create a new color.

STEP THREE

Pour liquid starch into goop a little bit at a time, mixing as you go.

STEP FOUR

Stretch, pull and twist your slime for 5 to 10 minutes as it starts to form its sliminesss.

STEP FIVE

Enjoy your slime! Squeeze it, smush it, stretch it, ball it up, and go again!
