Imagine creating something cool and tactile with your own hands! This guide is your ticket to making the best Icee Slime ever, so follow along, and let’s make something awesome.
Ingredients
To make your Icee Slime, you’ll need:
- 1 bottle of clear glue (about 5 oz)
- 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda
- Contact lens solution (make sure it contains boric acid)
- Shaving cream (for that fluffy Icee texture)
- Food coloring (optional, for that cool Icee look)
- A mixing bowl and a spoon
Preparation Steps
- Pour the glue into your mixing bowl. This is the base of your Icee Slime.
- Add the baking soda to the glue and mix well. This combo will help thicken your slime.
- Mix in shaving cream. Add enough to make the mixture fluffy, like a real Icee. Think about the size of your glue bottle and try to add the same amount of shaving cream.
- Add a few drops of food coloring if you want your slime to have a cool color. Mix it up well!
- Add the contact lens solution little by little, mixing as you go. Once the slime starts to form and pulls away from the sides of the bowl, you’ve added enough.
- Knead your slime with your hands. If it’s too sticky, add a tiny bit more contact lens solution.
Recipe Tips and Variations
- For a scented slime, add a few drops of essential oil or fragrance. Imagine your Icee Slime smelling like strawberries or lemon!
- Try different colors to make a rainbow of Icee Slime. It’s a fun way to learn about mixing colors.
- If you want your slime to have textures, add small foam beads. It’ll feel even cooler!
