How to make Slime with Flour and Soap and Water
Ingredients
1/8 cup Dawn dish soap add approximately 1/8 cup additional as needed
1/4 cup All purpose flour
Warm water (optional)
Equipment
Mixing bowl
Spatula
Step-By-Step Directions: how to make slime with soap
Step one: gather your ingredients
On a clean surface, gather your dish soap, all purpose, flour, and some warm water. For the dish soap I prefer to use Dawn dish soap as it’s my preferred kind in what I have on hand typically. You can use other types of dish soap, if you would rather. You also want to have some all purpose flour on hand. But when you think of all purpose flour, you never guessed that one of those purposes would be to create slime! Lol
Step two: add the ingredients together
Into the mixing bowl, add your all purpose, flour, then create a well into the center and add your dish soap. Mix the flour and soap together until they are well combined. Then sprinkle the water on top of your mixture.
Step three: work it
Work your mixture until it is soft and slimy in texture. The flower and soap should be completely mixed into the slime.
Step four: any extras
At this point if you would like, you can add food coloring, and drops or glitter to the slime. If you choose to add any of these, make sure that you work them in to the slime thoroughly.
Storage
After your slime is created, it can be played with right away or stored for later. When you store it for later, you will want to wrap it securely in plastic wrap, steal it in a plastic storage bag, or airtight container. The goal is to make sure it stays nice and moist and does not dry out. As long as it stays sealed securely, it should last for several play times.
