When making slime with our kids, we trust Elmer’s glue because of its kid-friendly ingredients.

Supplies for making rainbow slime without borax:

• Elmer’s Rainbow Slime Starter Kit (Red, Green, and Blue glitter glue)
• Elmer’s Magical liquid or 1 1/2 Tbsp Arm and Hammer baking soda & 3 Tbsp contact solution

Making slime is now easier than ever, thanks to Elmer’s slime starter kits.  For our colorful slime, we chose the Elmer’s Rainbow Slime Starter Kit. The rainbow kit comes with three colors of glitter glue — red, green, and blue.

Some of the slime starter kits come with Elmer’s Magical Liquid — a new ingredient that makes creating slime easier than ever!

How to make Rainbow Slime

To create slime with Elmer’s Magical Liquid, add one bottle of Elmer’s glue to a bowl and stir in the entire bottle of magical liquid. That’s all!

To create Rainbow Slime, you’ll need to make a batch of green slime, red slime, and blue slime.

If you don’t have Elmer’s Magical Liquid, mix a bottle of glitter glue with 1/2 Tbsp baking soda until combined. Then stir in 1 Tbsp contact solution until the slime starts to form. Stretch and knead until the slime reaches your desired consistency.

Layer the three colors together and you’ve got a fun batch of RAINBOW SLIME!!

The slime that we made with Elmer’s Magical Liquid was much stickier and stretchier than other slimes we’ve made. My son loved just how FUN it was to play with!
