• Contact saline solution – Another activator that turns the glue mixture into slime when combined with baking soda.

For Snow:

• Bowl – Used to prepare the instant snow before adding it to the slime mixture.
• Instant Snow – Gives the slime its fluffy, snow-like property, transforming the texture.

How to Make Snow Slime

Making snow slime is a fun and simple project. Start by creating the slime base. Pour a 5 oz bottle of white glue into a bowl and mix in ½ cup of water and ½ teaspoon of baking soda.

Next, add 1 tablespoon of contact saline solution and stir until the mixture thickens. It will be sticky at first, but keep stirring until the slime forms completely. Set the slime aside.

Next, prepare the snow by following the directions on the Instant Snow package. Mix hot water with purple food coloring, then add the colored water to the Instant Snow. Stir it with a spoon until the snow fluffs up.

Finally, combine the slime and snow. Gradually add the prepared snow into the slime and knead thoroughly.

Keep kneading until the mixture transforms into a soft, fluffy texture. You will be amazed as the plain white slime transforms into a pretty purple shade to make cloud slime or snow slime. The more you knead and play with this snow slime, the less sticky it becomes.

The snow slime or cloud slime has the most amazing texture. It is soft and fluffy and just different from the traditional slime you might be used to, thanks to the artificial snow.

If you don't have purple food coloring, use whatever color you have on hand or leave the slime white for a true cloud or snow look.

Now that you know how to make cloud slime, feel free to personalize it. Add different colors and scents to make this cloud or snow slime even more fun!

Tips On How To Make Snow Slime
