Rainbow Slime Recipe with Liquid Starch
Keep in mind, all slime recipes are not the same! For this rainbow slime recipe, we used white school glue for the colored slime recipe. We always buy it by the gallon online so we’ll have plenty of slime-making materials around the house 🙂 Liquid Starch and white glue create a super stretchy slime recipe that is so fun to manipulate in many ways!
Rainbow Slime Fun
Keep in mind, all slime recipes should be monitored by parents while the kids create, even if their ingredients are harmless. Consider creating slime is kind of like a science experiment and it should be monitored as such, especially when creating with smaller children. Also, should you accidentally spill any onto your carpet or get some on your clothing, regular ol’ vinegar is your savior here! 🙂
