We love slime. It’s one of our favorite things to make. Slime is fun because it is always impressive to see molecules bonding together in a new way right before your eyes. Plus, who doesn’t love playing with magic, stretchy slime?
We’ve found that the best slime recipe doesn’t use Borax powder (although we’ve made some cool slimes with Borax!), but rather with laundry starch (laundry starch does contain Borate though, so don’t use this recipe if you are sensitive to Borate chemicals). You can buy a huge container of starch that will last you a LONG time.
The only way to make slime more fun is to bring in more color. A LOT more color. And so, rainbow slime is born.

Add one bottle of glue to each jar and stir until combined. Or, if you buy a gallon of school glue (which you’ll want if you make slime a lot, so much cheaper!), put 1/2 a cup of glue in each jar.
Pour 1/2 a cup of laundry starch into each jar.
