Purple Monster Floam Slime Recipe
We recommend close adult supervision for younger kids playing with slime and would recommend that adults actually make the slime. Please don’t let young children handle contact cleaning solution as it can cause diarrhoea if consumed.
Ingredients:
- 3 cups of shaving cream (not the gel kind)
- 1 cup of white school glue
- Approx. 3-4 tbsp contact cleaning solution (containing boric acid)
- 2-3 drops of food colouring or a few squirts of acrylic paint
- 1 cup small foam beads
Instructions:
1. Empty shaving cream into a large bowl.
2. Add glue.
3. Add food colouring or paint.
4. Add contact cleaning solution. Start with just a little and mix it in thoroughly. Add a little more and mix, continue adding small amounts and combining until the slime mixture begins to stop sticking to the sides of the bowl. At that point, you can use your hands to continue mixing in more saline solution until the slime is a consistency you like, and no longer sticks to you finger.
If you accidentally add too much saline solution and your slime becomes stiff or breaks apart, you can add a little more glue to loosen it back up.
4. Add foam beads and knead them into the slime with your hands. If the slime becomes too stiff at this point, you can add in a little more glue. If it feels too goopy, you can add in more contact cleaning solution as needed.
6. Take the slime out of the bowl and work with your hands until the consistency is smooth.
Store your fluffy floam slime in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. Ensure children wash their hands thoroughly after playing with any slime, especially before eating.
And don’t forget to package up a jar or two for a monster-loving friend with our cute, printable jar labels below.
