My daughter received the Project MC2 ultimate lab kit as a gift, and in it, there is a little lab book with a bunch of backyard experiments to try. One that she has been asking to do for a while was to make slime. Today, the ingredients finally arrived.

The ingredients list for this slime was short, school glue and liquid starch, but the instructions for this experiment were half baked. It told us to start with some glue and then add liquid starch until it started to come together into a dough. I feel like they really lost an opportunity to introduce some basic science concepts here, such as explaining that this process is called, titration. Or, failing that, at least giving us a recipe in proportion. 

Here's the general ratio that I used:
2 parts glue to 1 part liquid starch. Food coloring to color preference.

Thanks for watching. Leave a comment to let me know you stopped by!
