As a mom, I am always looking for ways to keep my kids entertained for more than 5 minutes. One thing which has always managed to keep my kids entertained is slime. I have been on the receiving end of many slime episodes. Playing with slime is a great way for kids to exercise their motor muscles while having some fun. The thing with store-bought slime is that it loses its sliminess quite quickly and also contain chemicals that are not good for the skin.
So this summer during the holidays, we decided to make our own slime at home. It kept the kids busy and it felt like a fun science experiment.

What Do You Need To Make Slime
- Fevicol MR
- Rangeela Tempera Colours
- Concentrated Dishwashing Liquid

How To Make Slime
- Put 100gm of Fevicol MR to a bowl.
- Choose a colour from your Rangeela Tempera set and add it to the Fevicol. Make sure it’s evenly mixed.
- Add 2 Tbsp of the dishwashing liquid to the Fevicol mix and stir well.
- In a separate bowl, mix 1/2 Tsp baking soda and about 4 Tsp of water. Stir this mix well and let it rest for a few minutes.
- Add the baking soda mix to the Fevicol mix one tsp at a time and keep stirring till you get a slimy consistency. If you think you need more baking soda and water and the slime is not forming, you can add some more to the Fevicol mix.
- You have your homemade slime ready !!! You can add glitter and mix up colours to make your own unique slime.
