2 Ingredient Slime

I know slime is one of those things that you as parents aren't super thrilled about seeing come home with your child. It can get stuck in your car, carpet, and clothing and can be a huge mess! I have a slime recipe for you that isn't as sticky and only requires two ingredients, thats right, only two! We are starting to have consistently nice weather so you can send your child outside to make this and keep them occupied with very little clean up!

Here is what you will need...

  1. 2 tbs of Corn starch 
  2. 1.5 tbs of Dish soap l
  3. Thats it! 
Just mix the two ingredients together and and will turn into a putty type consistency. Too dry? Add more dish soap. Too wet? Add more corn starch! It is so simple and your child will have so much fun making it! This is not the type you can save so once they are done just toss it in the trash. I hope you guys enjoy this easy recipe.

The strategies here are helpful for people of all ages.  Keep in mind, different strategies will work for different people.
