Amazing Red Hot Slime for Kids
Kids love the gooey, slimy texture of SLIME!
Now add to that the subtle, sweet smell of cinnamon Red Hot candies and now you have a real winner! We have a sensory activity for kids that appeal to lots of senses at the same time.
Put 1 cup water and 1/2 cup red hots candy in the microwave for 3 minutes.
In a large bowl empty 2-3 - 6oz bottles of red glitter glue. You can easily buy this at Target or Wal-Mart.
Now pour out the water only from the red hot mixture – that will give you a beautiful red color and smell without adding texture to the slime.
Finally, in a separate bowl, mix 1 teas borax and 1 cup very warm water. Once dissolved pour it into the well mixed glue & red hot water mixture.
After mixing for a couple minutes pull out the slime mixture. Discard the leftover liquid. Now you have some beautiful red, sparkly cinnamon scented slime your kids will love!
