How Do I Make This Easy Valentine’s Day Slime
Making slime with your kids doesn’t have to be complicating.
In fact, you don’t even need a bunch of supplies to create slime at home and to share on Valentine’s Day with friends.
- In a small bowl, pour out 5 oz of white glue.
- Add ½ cup of water and stir until the glue and water are fully mixed together.
- If you would like to color your slime, add a few drops of food coloring. You can also use paint, soap colorants or pigments.
- Add ½ teaspoon baking soda and stir. This will help determine your slime’s thickness.
- Add 1 tablespoon of saline solution.
- Stir quickly. The slime will begin to form and pull away from the sides of the bowl. The saline solution will determine your slime’s stickiness.
- Once the slime has pulled away from the sides of the bowl, knead it for a few minutes. It will still be sticky at first. That’s ok.
- Store in an airtight container.
- If desired, print out a label and run through a sticker maker.
- Attach to the front of the container.
- Share with friends
Is Slime Safe To Make
Slime is a form of a science experiment and one of the things that we always teach kids when experimenting is to use caution.
There are many ways to make slime and this is just one of the easiest ways to do so.
Although, this recipe is very safe for kids to create it should always happen with adult supervision.
Especially if you have younger kids experimenting with slime.

Tips For Making Valentine’s Day Slime
One of the things that I love about this slime recipe is that it’s super easy to make with kids and you can easily add seasonal fun.
To change the color of the slime just choose your favorite food coloring. Personally, I prefer gel food coloring because the colors are more vibrant when making slime.
If you want to make your slime shimmer, just add some glitter to it, or better yet, add seasonal glitter like mini hearts or confetti after creating the recipe.
One of the easiest ways to make glitter slime is to use Glitter Glue instead of white glue.
