Make memories and have fun passing the slime! What makes this game so great? You only need people, chairs, bins, and masks or eye coverings for an unforgettable experience. Slime is the latest and greatest fad among children, and it’s easy to see why: Its unique texture and bright colors keep kids engaged. How to Create Slime Before you can play, you have to make the slime. There are many approaches, but the simplest recipe requires only three ingredients. You can customize it with food coloring and scale up the ingredients for larger quantities.
• •
8-ounce bottle of Elmer’s white school glue
Food coloring of choice
• 1 1/2–2 tablespoons of contact saline solution or lens cleaner (make sure it contains boric acid or sodium borate) • 1 tablespoon of baking soda To begin, mix the glue and food coloring into a bowl. Stir in 1 1/2 tablespoons of contact solution. If you want a thicker consistency, add another 1/2 tablespoon. Knead the slime. It will be liquid at first, but it’ll thicken as you work it. After a while, the concoction turns into slime. The Rules Once you have your slime, have the participants sit in chairs arranged in a row just a few feet apart. Everyone should have something over their eyes (disposable masks work perfectly) and a wide bin in front of them. Make sure to have a lot of slime. It can be any color — but the more, the better.
This recipe will transform ramen into a main dish dazzler.
INGREDIENTS
•
2 6-oz packages of ramen noodles
• • •
1 tbsp brown sugar
2 tsp Sriracha
• • •
2 tsp of sesame oil
Chopped green onions, for garnish
2 cloves of garlic, minced
1/4 cup soy sauce
The rules are simple, but they need some coordination.
DIRECTIONS
1. Cook the ramen noodles according to the instructions on the package. Toss the seasoning packet or save for another recipe. 2. Heat sesame oil in a small saucepan or skillet over medium heat. 3. Add garlic and sauté for about 2 minutes, stirring constantly so it doesn’t burn. 4. Remove pan from heat, whisk in soy sauce, brown sugar, and Sriracha until well combined. Feel free to add more heat or sweetness to taste. 5. Drain noodles and combine with sauce, tossing gently. 6. If desired, add your choice of cooked meat or tofu and mix thoroughly. 7. Garnish with green onions.
1. The person in front starts things off with their bin filled with slime. 2. They pull their bin over their heads, attempting to spill its contents onto the bin in front of the person behind them (without looking to see where the bin actually is). 3. That person pulls their bin over their head similarly, and so on until the end of the line. Directing the slime is the messy part since participants are blindfolded. That’s how you play pass the slime! Hint: If it gets stuck in your hair, try coconut oil. While pass the slime is particularly unique and fun, it’s just one of many ways to play with slime. You can also make art, form bubbles, and more. Children are imaginative and constantly invent new and exhilarating slime activities. The family who slimes together stays together.
