Step 1: Measure 3 Cups of Shaving Cream

Shake the shaving cream well. After done shaking the shaving cream spray the shaving cream into the 1 cup measuring cup and fill the cup to the top with the shaving cream. Once you are done filling the 1 cup measure, pour the 1 cup of shaving cream into the mixing bowl. Repeat until you have 3 cups of shaving cream in the mixing bowl

Step 2: Add 1/2 Cup of Glue and Mix

Use the glue bottle and pour into the ½ measuring cup to the top. Then, add the glue into the mixing bowl with the shaving cream. Using the large spoon, mix the glue and shaving cream in the mixing bowl until the substance looks like frosting.

Step 3: Add Food Coloring and Baking Soda

Add 8 drops of food coloring into the mixing bowl. Choose the color of your choice. Once food coloring is in, measure ½ teaspoon of baking soda and sprinkle over the top of the mixing bowl. Stir and mix ingredients well using the large spoon.

Step 4: Add Contact Solution and Mix

Measure 1 tablespoon of contact solution. Add the 1 tablespoon of contact solution into the mixing bowl. Once added, stir the slime for 1 minute or until slime has pulled away from the sides of the mixing bowl.

Step 5: Knead the Slime

Using your hands, take the slime out of the mixing bowl and start kneading the slime. Stretch and knead the slime until slime becomes firm. Important note: Your hands may get covered in dye from the food coloring, however the dye washes out with water.
