Slime

Pour the water into your mixing container and add the Elmer's glue. Stir until they are thoroughly mixed and there aren't any blobs of glue left.

• Now is the time to make your slime the color you want it to be. Add food coloring a few drops at a time, stirring it in between drops until you get the color you want.
• The standard color for slime, of course, is green, but you don't have to stop there! If you want to make your slime more sickly looking you can add some yellow as well. Red slime would be good for the guts of the “mad doctor's patient” in your haunted house. Red and blue together will make purple slime. The color is up to you!

• Once the color is to your liking, add the liquid starch and mix well. The mixture will start to thicken instantly. When it is thoroughly mixed your slime is ready!
• Experiment! I made a batch of light purple slime, and then after I mixed the starch in I added a few more drops of red and blue and stirred it some more. Since the mixture had already thickened, the additional colors didn't mix completely and they made streaks of red and blue that looked like veins. Ewww!
• Keep your slime in an airtight container so that it won't dry out.
