PLEASE NOTE: For safety concerns, participants will not be able to join in with video or audio. Parental supervision and assistance is required for this program at all times.These slimes are recommended for children ages 7 & up.

If you'd like to make your slime at home as we go along, please gather the following supplies. Both slimes require containers that will NOT be reused to store food in the future. Make sure you are making your slime on a surface that is easy to clean. Slime is very messy, so please plan ahead!

***Both slimes require a measuring cup and a tablespoon.

Optional: Feel free to add any spooky supplies like plastic eyeballs or googly eyes, spiders, bones, etc.

**The original post stated we would use candy sprinkles for this slime. After trying the slime, we discovered candy sprinkles did not work. Please have plastic spooky supplies for best results.
