Directions:
- Pour 1/4 cup of instant pudding and 1/2 cup corn starch into the mixing bowl.
- Slowly add 1/3 cup of warm water into mixing bowl.
- Stir mixture until evenly wet.
- Slowly add the remaining 1/2 cup of corn starch, mixing as you go.
- Lightly dust your countertop or table with a light sprinkling of corn starch. Move slime onto countertop and knead slime as you would dough for bread.
- Continue to mix slime until it takes on a slime-like texture, and you are good to go!
- Optional: Add food coloring onto slime and continue to knead slime to mix in food coloring.
Tip 1: If your slime is too sticky, try adding a little corn starch. If your slime is falling apart, try adding a little water.
Tip 2: We tried to add the food coloring to the water but found the color was very washed out this way, so it’s better to add after the slime is made, if at all!
