Except we added JELLO - which gives our slime fruity flavor and causes it to change color when you mix it! That led me to create our first edible slime recipe (this one!!), which was a fun spin on the oobleck I played with as a child.
Because obviously she wasn’t going to be happy just watching her older sister play with slime! She wanted to play too! Why Jello? Since my youngest daughter was only two years old at the time and still liked to stick everything in her mouth, I wanted to find a safer alternative.
When the latest slime craze hit a few years ago, most of the new recipes I found were made with glue, borax, liquid starch, etc. Growing up, I loved playing with slime, like Nickelodeon Gak and homemade white glue slime! Though in my day, our options were a bit more limited because we didn’t have the internet with thousands of different recipes to choose from.
