HOW TO MAKE SPIDER SLIME FOR HALLOWEEN
Materials
- 2 cups of school glue
- 1-2 cups of liquid starch
- Neon paint
- Spiders
- Bowl/spoon
- A blacklight (optional)
Method
- Begin by combining 2 cups of clear school glue with 1 teaspoon of blue paint in a large bowl or container.
- Slowly begin to add liquid starch and mix, slowly adding more starch and mixing until the desired consistency is reached.
- Once the slime is formed remove it from the bowl and knead it with clean, dry hands.
- After a bit of mixing and kneading you will be left with super stretchy spiderweb slime! Add spiders and the fun can begin!
- Make hand print spiders.
- Make pet spiders out of pompoms.
- Hunt for Halloween treats in "goblin guts".
- Make Halloween slime that is ghostly cold.
- Give this jack-o-lantern slime a try!
- Make creepy-crawly goblin GOO.
- Wow kids of all ages with these spooky Halloween experiments.
- Store spider slime in an air-tight container between play, and it can be used again and again!
- Liquid starch can be found in the laundry aisle of some stores, but I have found that it is easier to purchase it on Amazon.
- To make your slime glow you can use a blacklight fixture or these super cool flashlights. Rosie and Jewel love using the flashlights!
Troubleshooting:
- Is your slime too sticky? That means you need to add more starch. Just be sure to add it slowly.
- Is your slime too rubbery? OOPS! That means you added too much starch. That's ok. Just add a bit of glue and mix until the desired consistency is reached.
