MESSY FUN: DIY SLIME
We recommend doing this activity outside so clean up will be a breeze! This recipe is fun and safe for kids as it doesn't use Borax and you can color them red and blue, perfect for the 4th of July!
What you’ll need:
- Plastic bowls
- Water
- Cornstarch
- Food coloring
In a bowl, combine 1 cup of cornstarch and 1 cup of water. Mix until you have a good and slimy mixture.
Add 1 to 3 drops of food coloring.
Repeat with other colors.
Then play away.
We hope you and your family have a wonderful and safe holiday weekend! Remember to incorporate Little Pim and language learning in your family summer fun! Have your kids name each color in a different language when making crafts or recite the names of the fruits in their second language when prepping summer treats in the kitchen. If you're traveling this holiday weekend, you can take Little Pim with you with our digital downloads available in 12 languages. Happy Independence Day, America!
