Summer Time Slime

Monday

What a great first day of camp!

The kids made two ingredient slime using corn starch and conditioner. The slime had a great play-dough-feel to it.

After lunch and meditation time, the kids watched a tutorial video on how to safely make slime using borax, water, glue, and food coloring. We then got into three groups and rotated through stations of finger painting, slime making, and free draw.

Looking forward to a slimy, messy, terrific Tuesday!

Tuesday

Take a look at our attempted edible slime project!

We had rotation stations of free draw, water colors, and foam slime making.

Wednesday

Today the kids made unicorn slime, edible play doh, and shaving cream art!

So far we have made six different types of slime along with three different art projects! We can't wait to see what tomorrow brings.

Thursday

Today the kids made a play doh slime. This slime was made of flour, water, vegetable oil, cream of tartar, salt and food coloring.

After lunch the kids did rotation stations of playing with slime, playing with foam and shaving cream, and free draw.

Tomorrow we will make our own slime tutorial!

Friday
