This homemade slime recipe will keep kids busy for hours. (You’re welcome moms.)
I was about six years old when Mattel first introduced ready-made slime to the world - and I freaking loved that stuff!
I would play with the green goo for hours.
Some say slime is good for helping children regulate their emotions. I’m not sure it regulated mine, but I did love the way it oozed through my fingers.
Slime’s popularity declined for a while and was revived around 2015 when a whole new generation of slime-lovers were born.
With summer break in full swing, you are no doubt looking for something fun to do with the kids.
