Materials

Instructions

  • Empty out two bottles of white glue into a large bowl. Fill up each of the empty glue bottles with warm water and swirl around. Pour the two glue bottles full of warm water into the bowl with the glue.
  • Mix the glue and warm water until it is thoroughly combined.
  • While stirring the glue/water mixture, add the snowballs. We used about ½ - ¾ of our package. Stir until the snowballs have been incorporated into the mixture.
  • Dissolve 2 teaspoons of borax into 2 cups of warm water in a large bowl. This is a step for grown ups.
  • Pour the glue mixture into the bowl with the borax mixture. Almost immediately, snow gak will be formed.
  • Stir it until it comes together. You will still have some liquid left in the bowl which you can just pour out.
  • Now the snow slime is ready to be played with!

Notes

  • Make sure to have children wash their hands with soap after using the snow gak.
  • Some of the little snowballs will fall out of the snow slime as kids play but these can be easily swept away.
Please supervise kids when working with borax and the small items in this activity. If your child still puts things in their mouths, this is not for them. You know your child best so use your parental discretion with any activity.
