Cheap Things

SLIME you will need: water, Elmer’s white glue, borax food coloring (unless you want uncolored white slime)
First mix the mix 1 cup of water with 1 teaspoon of Borax until dissolved, in a separate container mix ½ cup of white glue with a ½ cup of water – add coloring if desired. Then mix the 2 together, it will become stiff, then remove it from the bowl and finish by hand. Some water may remain in the bowl.

Foam Just for Fun you will need: empty plastic bottle (for each kid) like a 2 liter or Gatorade with no lid (do not even have the lids available), water, dishwashing detergent, baking soda, and vinegar.

First fill each bottle most of the way full of warm water and add a squirt of dishwashing detergent. Make sure you have all the needed items ready. Next add some baking soda (2-3 teaspoons) to each bottle. Put your hand over the opening and shake it up to get suds, then pour in vinegar which will start the reaction. Squeezing the bottle may help move things along. Add more baking soda and vinegar when needed. Have a foam fight. Remember do NOT cap the bottle.
