Children art - Slime Monster!

Last Thursday, we made the slime from scratch. We used skin friendly ingredients instead of the conventional ones (borax and detergent), 

Our ingredients were simple.
 
Washable glue
Foam shaving cream
Saline Solution
Baking Soda
Baby Oil

After we put all the ingredients, we started to mix them. It was fun to watch the mixture becomes thick and sticky, yet easy to take it off from the utensil and the bowl.

After we felt we mixed it evenly, we started to touch it with our hands and knead it. The children were excited about its stickiness, and as we kneaded more and more it became easy to take it off from the hands and started to become like very soft play dough consistency.  

The children played with it for a while and they wanted to decorate with the googley eyes, pipe cleaners, and acorns. 

 The children loved the creative activity and made the ghost, slime monster,

and the smiling happy man!
