HOW TO MAKE SNOWMAN SLIME FOR KIDS

Materials

• 2 cups of chilled white school glue 
• 1-2 cups of chilled liquid starch
• Bowls/container

Optional additions:

• Iridescent glitter 
• Snowflake gems
• Craft foam

A Tip: To make this slime icy-cold I recommend refrigerating the glue and liquid starch overnight.  Just be sure to set them on the counter for fifteen minutes before mixing the slime.

Method

• Begin by pouring 2 cups of white school glue into a large mixing bowl.
• Slowly begin to add liquid starch, slowly adding more starch and mixing until the desired consistency is reached.

• Once the slime is formed remove it from the bowl and continue to knead it with clean, dry hands.  After a bit of mixing and kneading you will have delightfully fun, icy-cold snow slime!

Rosie added a bit more starch to her bowl than Jewel, but that was ok! 

Less starch will give you a more oozy slime, and more starch will give you a rubber-like slime.

Don't worry about exact measurements.  Just be sure to slowly add the liquid starch & mix well before adding more.  Playing with the ingredients is all part of the fun of making slime at home.

Extend the Fun

• Cut shapes from craft foam so that kids can make oozing snowmen.

• Add cookie cutters to make slime snowflakes.
• Add cars and trucks.
• Add winter play animals.
• Add Frozen figurines.

• Make snowman farts!  To do this squeeze some of your snow slime into a small jar or container. We used baby food jars. As the slime is squeezed into the jar you will hear a "fart". Hahahaha! :)

Any way they play kids are sure to have a blast as they stretch and pull this icy-cold slime!

SLIME PARTY FAVORS

Are you in need of a fun holiday party favor?  Make this wintry slime, and then place it into containers like these. Then, use a Sharpie to draw snowman faces on the containers.

You are now all set with a party favor to please!

Tips & Troubleshooting:  

• If your snowman slime is too sticky add a bit more starch and knead it in.
• If the slime becomes too rubbery add a touch more glue and mix it in.  
• Store the slime in a zip-seal bag between play times, and it can be used again & again!
