HOW DO I MAKE EDIBLE SLIME?

An edible slime is preferable to traditional glue slimes because young kids can put it in their mouth safely without worry that they are ingesting potentially toxic chemicals. Edible slimes are perfect for the preschool classroom and kindergarten classroom (and for toddlers, too!) because you don’t have to worry every second about watching all the kids like a hawk to make sure they keep the slime out of their mouths. With edible slime, eating it is part of the process! This particular edible jellybean slime recipe is made with jellybeans and corn starch only, which brings a fun, sticky, and colorful element to the classroom or your kitchen at home. If your kids don’t like eating jellybeans, they may still love making jellybean slime!

WHAT IS EASTER SLIME ALL ABOUT?

Easter slime recipes are about more than just having fun with stretchy, slimy slime. Slime is a wonderful way to help children foster a love of science and chemistry. Slime is formed when a chemical reaction between materials in the glue and the boron in the laundry starch or borax. This reaction alters the chemical bond of the materials, combining them into long polymer chains. This process is similar to how most flexible plastics are made today.

We make an edible jellybean slime recipe because it’s a fun way to combine science and sensory experiences with Easter, and you can eat it, too!
