Kid-safe slime
Prep 10M | Chill 2Hr | Enjoy in 2Hr 10M
The next generation of playdough is here, and it’s a little…gooey. Slime first entered the kids toy market in 1976, but the stretchy substance took off in popularity with DIY recipes in 2015. And it’s not just a toy anymore, it’s a form of relaxation. Many people with heightened sensitivity or varied sensory preferences find a sense of calm when they dig their hands into a fresh batch of slime. Give it a try with your littles this winter, you might be surprised how good it feels. If you’re looking for more family-friendly activities, our Wally Wheat booth travels around the province educating kids on the country’s largest crop, wheat. Spot our booth at Calgary Stampede’s Aggie Days, AmazingAg in Edmonton or Aggie Days in Lethbridge.
The protein found in flour, gluten, acts like a glue to hold food together and works perfectly to make ooey-gooey slime, with no borax or glue.
Ingredients:
1 cup flour
1 tbsp water
1/3 cup dish soap
Food colouring
Glitter, foam balls, sequins (optional)
Directions:
- Combine the flour and water in a large bowl and mix.
- Slowly add in your dish soap and continuously mix with a spatula. The slime should start as a paste and transform to a dough consistency.
- Add food colouring and knead in the colouring with your hand. Gently knead the dough for 3-5 minutes.
- Knead in optional mix-ins and mold the slime into a ball. Cover and refrigerate slime for 2 hours.
- Remove from fridge and enjoy! Slime can be stored in an airtight container for one week.
I LOVE THIS RECIPE ITS REALLY GREAT AS I HAVE NO GLUE PLUS THIS ACTUALLY WORKS
is it alright if you can explain how the dish soap and flour come together and create a dough-like slime?
My best friend and i made this slime. At first it didnt quite come together but after a while we experimented and added more flour, water and dishwasher soap and it is currently in the fridge. Cant wait to see what it looks like tomorrow. Thank you for this recipe we had fun making it
I tried the slime and it wasn’t working , i don’t know why though
I followed all the steps and rechecked twice and even left the slime in the refrigerator for 2 hours, I will try again tomorrow.
It does not work 🙄
Me and my sister made this slime and it’s so fun!!!! It turned out perfect!!
It does not work it turns out to be very thick and not slimy👎👎
do you think i should do this with my 10 year old?
Me and my five year old made this & I didn’t read the “let sit in the fridge” part at first soo it was very sticky when we played with it but we had fun making it anyways 😄
It’s currently in the fridge but before it was very thick and not stretchy at all. But I still like it just it’s not my favorite type of slime. 🙂
This is an AMAZING recipe! I made this by myself, and it worked out perfectly! I added two colors to make a swirl. Thanks so much 🙂
Will this work with almond flour,??
Umm it does not work but I might have done something wrong but y’all should try and tell me .
This slime was sooo thick and way to sticky I couldn’t even touch it or it would stick to my hands
hi
Why do we put it for 2 hours??????????????????????????????????

This recipe sucks
Hi it is vary hard and it works but it is vary hard
This is a good recipe but bored for waiting two hours before I put it in the fridge it was like dough
it wont work for me guys
I felt really good we are about to put inside of the fridge I’m so excited we did have to add a lot of soap though
It didn’t work out for me 😭😭😭😭😭
I had a lot of fun making this it was not really like stretchy or slime but we’ll put it in the fridge and see what happens then
umm
I dont know if it works but by my experince ik it wont become really slime like
I think this is a great way to make slime but I also think you should add a video.This way more people will be interested in this recipe because it doesn’t use as much time.Thank you. I will definitely be trying this recipe out.
I loved it at first but mine kinda turned out a bit more like dough. my dish washing liquid smells really bad so my slime kinda stunk! But other then that it was pretty cool.
Will it just make dough
This is great!it worked perfectly, and I used Dawn dish soap so it turned mint colored! I love it ♥️!
Hi! I made this and I just put it in the fridge and I cant wait to see what it looks like in 2 hours!
I just made it and put it in the fridge but when mixing it I could tell it probably not going to turn out the way I wanted to. But I also made one more but with different ingredients it called for as much shampoo you wanted and thin layer of watet cover and put in fridge for 2 hours. But I hope It works let you know if it does.
Hey will Aloe Vera and flour work?
It was so amazing thanks 🙏 love it
